Timeline

1933

Ojeda started the 33rd when play was resumed two months later and got credit for the win when Pawtucket won in the bottom of the inning after eighteen minutes.

The first 32 innings had taken over eight hours.

1957

Robert Michael Ojeda (born December 17, 1957) is an American former professional baseball player, coach and television sports color commentator.

He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a left-handed pitcher from to, most notably as a member of the New York Mets, with whom he won a world championship in.

He also played for the Boston Red Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers, Cleveland Indians and the New York Yankees.

1978

Upon graduation, Ojeda was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Boston Red Sox in 1978.

1979

Though his first professional season with the New York–Penn League's Elmira Pioneers went poorly (1–6 with a 4.81 ERA), in 1979, as a starting pitcher for the Winter Haven Red Sox of the Florida State League, Ojeda went 15–7 in 29 games started, earning a promotion to the triple A Pawtucket Red Sox for 1980.

1980

With a good earned run average, Ojeda was called up to the majors in July 1980.

He made his major league debut on July 13 at Fenway Park against the Detroit Tigers, and was winning, 4–1, until the sixth inning when the Tigers scored three runs to tie the score, and knock Ojeda out of the game.

The Red Sox eventually won, 8–4.

Ojeda's first victory was on August 2, against the Texas Rangers.

Ojeda gave up no runs with four strikeouts over six innings.

Two starts later, on August 11, he was removed from the game after having faced only three batters without getting an out, and was sent back to Pawtucket.

1981

On June 23, 1981, Ojeda was the winning pitcher in the longest professional baseball game in history.

The game between Pawtucket and the Rochester Red Wings started on April 18 but was suspended after 32 innings.

Ojeda compiled a 12-9 record with a 2.13 ERA in 1981 for Pawtucket, and was voted the International League Most Valuable Pitcher of the year.

When the 1981 Major League Baseball strike ended, Ojeda's stellar ERA earned him a recall to the majors.

He responded with a complete game seven-hit victory.

This time, Ojeda's stay in the majors was for the long term, as he pitched well in all but his last two starts for Boston.

1982

The 1982 season went poorly for Ojeda in his first full season in the majors.

After a couple of poor starts in May, he started splitting his time between starting and relief pitching and was shut down in mid-August with an ERA near six.

When Ojeda returned home during the off-season, he was frustrated with his performance during the season and took up karate, saying that "if I ever get back to the big leagues and get beat around like I got beat around, somebody's going to pay."

1983

In 1983, Ojeda turned things around for a Boston team that finished near the bottom of the division.

As the fourth starter, he posted a 12–7 record and a 4.04 ERA, both of which were best in The Rotation.

1984

In 1984, Ojeda and Bruce Hurst were the number-one starters and Ojeda posted another 12 wins (to go with 12 losses) which included a Major League lead-tying five shutouts.

The Red Sox improved in the standings but Ojeda's numbers – including an ERA again near four – mostly stayed the same.

1985

When 1985 started, the Red Sox were overstocked on starting pitchers, including a young Roger Clemens, so Ojeda was relegated to the bullpen.

On May 4, 1985, he picked up the one and only save of his MLB career.

Ojeda pitched 2⁄3 of an inning to close out a 5-4 Red Sox victory over the Athletics.

Ironically, the starting and winning pitcher that day for the Red Sox was Steve Crawford, who was predominantly a relief pitcher throughout his career.

Ojeda pitched so well out of the bullpen that he was moved back into The Rotation at the end of May, but his ERA again ballooned over four, prompting the Red Sox to trade him after the season.

The eight-player trade seemed minor at the time, but would have repercussions the following year, as it sent Ojeda to the New York Mets and Calvin Schiraldi to the Red Sox.

Both would play important roles in the World Series the following year.

1986

In 1986, Ojeda was fantastic for the Mets almost from day one.

Despite starting in the bullpen and then being only the fourth starter, he finished with an 18–5 record, 2.57 ERA (second-best in the league) and 148 strikeouts – all career-bests.

He got through the fifth inning in all but two of his starts and allowed zero earned runs in eight different starts.

His lone blemish occurred off the field when, on July 19, he and teammates Ron Darling, Rick Aguilera, and Tim Teufel were arrested outside a bar in Houston, Texas for fighting with security guards (who were also off-duty police officers).

1993

Ojeda was the lone survivor of a March 22, 1993, boating accident that killed fellow Cleveland Indians players Steve Olin and Tim Crews.

He is a former pre- and post-game studio analyst for Mets' broadcasts.

Ojeda attended Redwood High School and College of the Sequoias in Visalia, California.
