Fun Fruto Facts

From the M's Notebook in today's SEATTLE TIMES

He is the eighth Colombian to make the Major Leagues.

If he had pitched four innings for a save, he would have tied a 29-year old record set by Bob Stanley for the longest save in a major league debut.

Rafael Soriano (WI '00) also had a save in his major league debut. A 3-inning save on May 10, 2002

He was timed at 6.75 seconds in the 60-yard dash in a race against Asdrubal Cabrera (WI '05) two years ago.

He once ran the 60-yard dash in 6.50 seconds. But, as Fruto himself says, "I was a lot skinnier then."
