During last night’s Mets TV broadcast, it was mentioned that New York’s starting pitcher (Jacob deGrom) and catcher (Devin Mesoraco) shared the exact same birthday (6/19/1988).
Here are all the prior games (through 2017) in which that has happened (note that the last occurrence prior to 2018 was way back in 1998):
