Bartolo Colon drew the first walk of his career Monday night against Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Robbie Ray. It came in Colon's 282nd plate appearance over 19 Major League seasons.

No other player in big league history had appeared at the plate that many times without a walk, according to ESPN Stats & Info.

"That surprised me as well. I don't know why that pitcher didn't strike me out. He could have. I really couldn't do much more at that point," Colon said, citing a sore wrist.

Earlier this season, Colon hit the first home run of his career.
