T Jones relieved J Riedling. C Stynes struck out swinging. A Nunez hit for J Grabow. A Nunez struck out swinging. T Redman grounded out to first. (0 Runs, 0 Hits, 0 Errors) CINCINNATI 5, PITTSBURGH 4.Nunez was 11 for 104 as a pinch-hitter from 2001 to 2003. The full numbers are .106 / .174 / .154. That's an OPS of 328. Bob Smizik wasn't kidding when he called Nunez "amazingly inept" as a pinch-hitter. I knew he was bad, but I didn't realize he was that bad until I looked it up.
Is Abraham Nunez the worst pinch-hitter ever? I'm serious. I think he could be.
...John Mabry is a good suggestion by Steve of Mariners Wheelhouse but Abe has Mabry beat. We need to use three-year splits or broader periods of time to screen out one-year wonders. From 2001 to 2003, Mabry was 19 for 94 with numbers of .202 / .267 / .245. Abe had more appearances, then, and Mabry's 512 OPS represents a 56% improvement over Nunez's 328 OPS.
