Big Apple Debut – The Hard Way

Posted by Steve Lombardi on June 29, 2008

David Robertson made his big league debut on Sunday - for the Yankees - facing the Mets at Shea Stadium. 

What other Yankees players played their first big league games as a visitor in Shea Stadium?  Just two - Tyler Clippard and Brandon Claussen.

Jaime Cerda is the only Mets player to ever make his big league debut as a visitor in Yankee Stadium.

Four pitchers...and three of them have last names that start with "C."

I wonder if Robertson knows that he's ruined a fun little clue to a trivia question answer?
