As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his third in a row with more than five innings. This season, Penrod has been strong no matter where he plays. On the mound, he has an ERA of 1.85 over 34 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat he has slashed 0.340/0.507/0.528 with 21 runs, plus 18 stolen bases.
