'In ya go,' says manager Alan Trammell to the young Urdaneta. The bases are loaded. Urdaneta walks David DeJesus on a full-count pitch, surrenders five singles to the next five hitters, gets pulled, and never puts on the Olde English D again. In 2007 he got into two games with the Mets and pitched a total of 1.0 innings, so his career ERA isn't infinity.
