Danny Jansen was the Toronto Blue Jays catcher when the June 26th game with the Red Sox was suspended. On July 27th he was traded to the Red Sox. When the game resumes on Monday, he will be catching for the Red Sox. A first in the history of major league baseball.
I always wondered if there is some scenario where a pitcher can be the winning and losing pitcher in the same scenario.
By the way, Joel Youngblood is one of a very few that to have played (and the only one to have gotten hits) with two different teams on the same day. On August 4, 1982, Youngblood got a hit off of Ferguson Jenkins against the Cubs. He was pulled from the game in the third inning when the Mets traded him to the Montreal Expos. The Expos were playing the Phillies that night in Philadelphia and he then got a hit off of Steve Carlton.

Let's play for two! Traded Jansen to make history
Boston manager Alex Cora confirmed that Danny Jansen will be in the lineup when the Red Sox take on the Blue Jays in the resumption of a suspended game from June 26 -- one in which the veteran catcher had appeared for Toronto.
