  • Weekly Notes 072817
    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).

    CHAPTER 3030 The History and Traditions of BGSU Ann Bowers University Archivist, Center for Archival Collections Linda K. Swaisgood Associate Director, Office of Marketing and Communications istory and traditions are part of the culture of every university or col- lege. When you entered Bowling Green State University, you became H part of its culture. Thus, it is very important that you have some un- derstanding of BGSU’s history and its traditions. By doing so, the vision state- ment and core values are revealed, not as empty words and phrases, but as meaningful goals which have been part of this institution since its beginning. When Bowling Green State University opened its doors as a teacher train- ing (normal) school in 1914, its enrollment stood at 304, ten faculty had been hired, and the first two planned buildings (Williams Hall and University Hall) were not yet finished. Even then, President Homer Williams had both the vi- sion and unyielding determination to build a university rather than a normal school. He believed in strong academic standards and fought many attempts to keep BGSU from becoming what it is today, a university in which excellence is continually promoted and valued. President Williams would be most pleased 1910 1914 1915 1916 Bowling Green is chosen Classes are held at The first commencement The Bowling Green by representatives of the Bowling Green Normal is held.
