Hill is 45 years old, which is remarkable enough. Even crazier is the record Hill is going to tie. This will be the 14th MLB team he pitches for, matching Edwin Jackson for most in league history. The Royals are 48-52 at the time of Hill's call-up, with a lot of work to do to try and return to the playoff race.

When the 2002 fourth-round picks makes his Kansas City debut, he will tie Edwin Jackson’s MLB record by playing for his 14th team. The 6-foot-5 Boston native last pitched in the majors in September 2024 for the Red Sox.

Once he appears in a game with the Royals, Hill will tie Edwin Jackson's major-league record by playing for his 14th different team. Hill began his MLB career in 2005 with the Cubs, the team he could face this week.
