Good to see Max Clark has hit the ground running in rookie ball. Walk off 3 run homer and a double today. Hopefully he'll get some at bats in A ball this year.

Nice payback for Mondays game.

The ghoster and dealbreaker pitched 7 innings 4 hits 5 K's.

Miggy's 2 hits tied and passed Tony Gwynn and now is tied with Robin Yount all-time.

Win, 99-63 still possible.

 

[gotime909]

Why only 7 innings?

They played 9

Nice win ! Listen to Dickerson while at work. Must have been a tough broadcast foe Dan. He worked with Jim over 20 years. Maybe closer to 25. I was pretty peeved up 3-0 with runners on 2nd and 3rd and no outs and we failed to score. But Rodriguez slammed the door.

Nice to see a miggy get 2 hits and tie Tony Gwynn and pass him to tie Robin Yount at 3142.
With 49 games left I doubt he catches Cal. Maybe Adrian but for sure Brett I think.

Next guys in the list
3141 Gwynn
3142 miggy
3142 Yount
3152 Paul Waner
3154 George Brett
3166 Adrian Beltre
3184 Cal Ripken 16th place

3243 Nap Lajoie 15th place
