1st hitter of the season probably isn't so rare, but I would think 1st pitch of the season hasn't happened all that often.

Strikeout for Happ, but coked 7 pitches in that at bat. He's going to have a very nice year.

If Ian Happ leads off today's game with a home run, I will jump in Lake Michigan later today.

If there have been 118 first pitches of the season (since 1900), and the average home run rate over that period is 1.9%, there's a decent chance a batter has done it before in the first plate appearance. Not sure how far back they keep records for first pitch though.

Well at least he didn't break his leg this time.

And no, he didn't butcher anything.
