    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).

    The Boston Red Sox Friday, June 15, 2018 * The Boston Globe David Price has been true to his word, and then some Peter Abraham SEATTLE — When David Price was medically cleared to rejoin the Red Sox rotation in mid-May after a two-day shutdown for wrist pain, he vowed to make every start the rest of the season. Left unsaid, and completely uncertain at the time, was how good Price would be. He had a 5.11 earned run average and was pitching with poor command and low 90s velocity. In the month since, Price has been one of the best pitchers in the majors. He was dominant again on Thursday night as the Sox beat the Seattle Mariners, 2-1. The Red Sox have won the first four games on their 10-game road trip and nine of 12 overall. At 48-22, they are 26 games over .500 for the first time this season. Seattle came into the series having won four straight and 11 of 13 to climb into first place in the American League West. But Price, Joe Kelly, and Craig Kimbrel held the Mariners to six hits before an enthusiastic crowd of 30,475 at Safeco Field. Kimbrel had to earn his 22nd save. He walked leadoff hitter Mitch Haniger and then threw a wild pitch before walking Nelson Cruz. Kimbrel then struck out an overmatched Kyle Seager before Ryon Healy bounced into a double play smartly turned by second baseman Eduardo Nunez. Price continued what has been an impressive run by allowing one run on five hit, all singles, over seven innings.

    Atlanta Braves Clippings Saturday, July 25, 2015 Braves.com Banuelos, Braves drop battle of rookies By Jenifer Langosch and David Cobb / MLB.com | @LangoschMLB | 1:35 AM ET ST. LOUIS -- After opening his career with five no-decisions, lefty Tim Cooney notched his first Major League win while throwing a career-high seven innings in the Cardinals' 4-2 victory over the Braves at Busch Stadium on Friday night. Cooney received most of his support from center fielder Randal Grichuk, who connected for a two-run homer and scored twice against Braves starter Manny Banuelos. Three of the four runs Banuelos allowed over five-plus innings came with two out. The Braves shaved a four-run deficit in half with a two-run sixth that snapped Cooney's 12-inning scoreless streak. Cameron Maybin's RBI double off Cooney was Atlanta's only extra-base hit of the night. "This was definitely my best fastball command, as well as off-speed pitches," said Cooney, who finished seven innings on 74 pitches. "When you're able to locate the ball, good things are going to happen. I was definitely on today, and I feel like I've been getting a little bit better each start." With the win, the Cardinals improved to 35-12 at home this year and are a season-high 28 games over .500. The Braves have won just three of their last 11. MOMENTS THAT MATTERED Randal rakes: Just as he did on Thursday, Grichuk blasted a two-run homer in his first at-bat of the night on Friday.
