  • 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).

The purpose of the draft is to assign amateur baseball players to major league teams. The draft order is determined based on the previous season's standings, with the team possessing the worst record receiving the first pick. Eligible amateur players include graduated high school players who have not attended college, any junior or community college players, and players at four-year colleges and universities three years after first enrolling or after their 21st birthdays (whichever occurs first). From 1966-1986, a January draft was held in addition to the June draft targeting high school players who graduated in the winter, junior college players, and players who had dropped out of four-year colleges and universities. To date, there have been 1,170 Maryland players selected in the First-Year Player Drafts either from a Maryland High School (337), Maryland College (458), Non-Maryland College (357), or a Maryland amateur baseball club (18).

  • TEXAS RANGERS CLIPS – September 2, 2013
    TEXAS RANGERS CLIPS – September 2, 2013 TEXASRANGERS.COM Rangers fall as division lead dwindles to one game Lineup limited by Twins to two solo homers in rubber match By Master Tesfatsion / MLB.com | 9/1/2013 6:19 PM ET ARLINGTON -- The Rangers' lead in the American League West was cut in half Sunday in a rocky start to the final month of the regular season. Texas squandered an opportunity to maintain its two-game cushion over the A's by dropping the rubber match to the Twins, 4-2, at Rangers Ballpark. Texas now holds a one-game lead against Oakland before the two teams meet for a three-game series Monday, as the A's defeated the Rays, 5-1. The Rangers lost ground to the A's in their two losses to Minnesota over the last three days. Texas has lost its last three series to the Mariners, White Sox and now the Twins, all teams below .500 and virtually out of the playoff chase. "It was a frustrating series," Ian Kinsler said. "We didn't do what we wanted to do. That's it. It's over with and time to move on." The Rangers scored six runs for just the third time this season in a series of three games or more at Rangers Ballpark. Prior to this season, that feat happened just six times in the first 19 seasons at Rangers Ballpark. "I wish I could explain it," Rangers manager Ron Washington said of the offensive inconsistencies. "I think this series here, you've got to explain it by how the Minnesota Twins pitched." Mitch Moreland provided the only run off starter Kevin Correia on an opposite-field home run in the third to give the Rangers a 1-0 lead.
