About Jean Segura
Jean Carlos Enrique Segura is a Dominican former professional baseball infielder. He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Milwaukee Brewers, Arizona Diamondbacks, Seattle Mariners, Philadelphia Phillies, and Miami Marlins. Segura was an All-Star in 2013 and 2018, and led the National League in hits in 2016. He played for the Dominican Republic national baseball team at the 2017 World Baseball Classic. In the offseason, Segura played in the Dominican Winter League, and won the league's batting title with a.324 batting average, as he was also 2nd in the league with 11 stolen bases. In the eighth inning of a game on April 19, 2013, Segura stole second base, and then "stole" first base, then was thrown out trying to again steal second base. The play resulted in much confusion regarding whether Segura should have been allowed to retreat to first base after he had legitimately occupied second base. He had a 22-game hitting streak with the Owlz, one short of the franchise record, and while playing for them was tied for 8th in the Pioneer League in triples (4), and 8th in batting average (.346).
