“Definitely grateful,” Jansen told reporters about the opportunity to make MLB history by being the first player to play for both teams in an MLB game, via ESPN. “Honestly, when I heard about it, I didn’t think I would be the first. The game has been around for so long. It’s one of those oddities that happen in this sport. It’s extremely rare and cool.”
