    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).

  • 2001 Baseball Game-By-Game Recaps
    2001 Baseball Game-by-Game Recaps May 19, vs. East Texas Baptist University MVNC, the second seed, dropped a hard-fought 4-2 decision to fifth-seeded East Texas Baptist in the semifinals of the National Christian College Athletic Association National Tournament. The Tigers claimed the win with a two-out, two-run home run in the bottom of the seventh inning. The Cougars did not record a hit in the game as they were no-hit for the first time since March 26, 1999. Adam Rowe (8-4) suffered the loss as he allowed eight hits, two walks, and four runs in 6 2/3 innings of work with five strikeouts. For their efforts, Rowe and Mark Coulter were named to the NCCAA All-National Tournament Team. May 19, vs. Greenville (IL) College The rain finally subsided as the second-seeded Cougars played their first game of the National Christian College Athletic Association National Tournament and eliminated ninth-seeded Greenville 3-1. Mark Coulter (9-3) worked six-plus innings to pick up the victory as he allowed just four hits, two walks, and one run with five strikeouts. Jon Barchus recorded the final three outs for his fifth save as Nate Overholt made a diving catch in leftfield with two outs and two runners on to end the game. Offensively, Jeff Wine led off the game with a solo home run, and Mike Waddell tied the single-season school record with his 21st double. The win was also the 400th in Coach Keith Veale's 12-year career - all at MVNC.

  • Do I Hear 14 Consecutive Division Titles? 1. Atlanta Braves: That's
    Do I hear 14 consecutive division titles? 1. Atlanta Braves: That’s right - the Atlanta Braves are going for an unprecedented 14th consecutive division title. No team, not even the Yankees, has held such stranglehold on a division for so long. Manager Bobby Cox and pitching coach Leo Mazzone are two big reasons why the Braves have been so good for so long. They demand performance out of their players and get it back along with great respect. Every year they have their doubters, but somehow, some way they find a way to get into the playoffs again. Having success in the postseason has been hard as they’ve only won the whole thing once during their impressive regular season run. Built for the regular season, yes, postseason… a completely different story over the past several years. This year it will be tough as it always is. Atlanta has some problems to solve, including the one in right field where they now have to replace J.D. Drew, who replaced usual MVP candidate Gary Sheffield. Raul Moñdesi and Brian Jordan, two older veterans, are the guys Atlanta will look to at that position. Neither may have much left in the tank, if anything at all. What they do know is that they will be under a microscope (a small one at that) much of the year. If they do not perform then they could be gone and a younger player may be forced to complete an outfield that already include all-stars Chipper and Andruw Jones. Atlanta’s got two of the steadiest middle infielders in the game in second baseman Marcus Giles (.311Avg and 118 hits) and shortstop Rafael Furcal (103 runs, 29 stolen bases and 27 career triples).
