Question: Who is the only MLB player ever to get a hit for two teams, in two cities, on the same day?

Answer: On Aug. 4, 1982, Joel Youngblood achieved a unique baseball feat when he got a hit for the Mets in an afternoon game at Chicago’s Wrigley Field, was traded to Montreal, then singled as a pinch-hitter for the Expos that night in Philadelphia. His performance made him the only player in Major League Baseball history to get hits for two different teams in two different cities on the same day.
