Cortez naturally throws left-handed, but he is also ambidextrous. He entered the game in the eighth inning as a defensive replacement in right field. For the ninth inning, he was moved to third base, and used a borrowed glove on his left hand. I don't think any other player has played two different fielding positions as a left-handed and as a right-handed thrower. This has been done by pitchers.
Note in the image, (B/T), he is listed as a left-handed batter and a Switch thrower.
Yogi Berra, (allegedly).
According to Yogi, 'he didn't say half of the things he said'.
Casey Lawrence.
Lawrence pitched for the Blue Jays in 2017, 2022 and 2025, compiling an 0-4 record with 8.21 ERA in 34 innings pitched. I could probably do THAT.
Mo'Ne Davis.
Davis was the first girl to win a game and pitch a shutout in the Little League World Series, (2014).
Four players won the Home Run Derby during the All Star Break more than once.
