After years of patience, Falu makes major league debut

After waiting more than nine seasons and 900 games in the Minor Leagues, Irving Falu finally received the call to play Major League Baseball.

After being activated from Triple-A Omaha on Thursday, Falu played in his first Major League game on Sunday against the Yankees, a 10-4 Royals loss. The 28-year-old native of Puerto Rico started at shortstop and batted eighth.

Before the game, Falu said he would try to get a hit in his first Major League at-bat. He might have a future in prognostication; in the second inning, Falu tripled off Yankees starter Phil Hughes in his first big league plate appearance.

Irving Falu's Major League Debut After 949 Games

It isn't easy to be a minor league player. You work as hard as you can to get a chance to make it to the show, but sometimes the call never comes. For 28 year old Irving Falu of the Kansas City Royals, it seemed to be his reality. Irving played 949 minor league games dating back to 2004 where he paid his dues and honed his craft, hoping each spring training he'd be told he was on the roster for the Royals. 

Well this weekend, Falu finally got the call (thanks to an injury to Yuniesky Betancort) and proved he belonged in the majors with his first major league hit a triple in the second. Falu finished the day 2 for 4 and scored a run off of a single from Alex Gordon. 

Alex Rodriguez appreciated the momentus hit and handed him the ball at third. Classy!

Irving's family reacts to his triple.

The home opener was originally scheduled to be a 2:35pm EST start, due to weather the team decided that moving that back to a 5:35pm EST was a better chance to get the game in. Neither were the case and the start time…
