Mariners backup catcher Jamie Burke made a relief appearance in a 15-inning game against Detroit on Sunday and took the loss. As expected, he received a bunch of phone calls and text messages afterwards saying things like "saw you pitch on TV! That's cool! LOL!" Turns out Burke didn't really want to talk about it.

The sad tale of Jamie Burke taking the loss for the Mariners Sunday made me interested in looking up why another position player got a win. And that was Rocky Colavito of the Yankees back on August 25, 1968.
