    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).

Rawly Eastwick, in the third round of the amateur draft and Ken Griffey, Sr., in the 29th round MLB.COM Reds select U. of Florida 3B India at No. 5 Right-handers Richardson, Gray also drafted on Day 1 By Mark Sheldon MLB.com @m_sheldon 12:59 AM ET CINCINNATI -- Many players never forget where they were standing or sitting when they were taken in the MLB Draft. As it happened on Monday night during the 2018 Draft, University of Florida third baseman Jonathan India was standing on first base with a walk when the Reds selected him with the fifth overall pick. India, playing with the Gators in the NCAA regional tournament, was not immediately available to discuss his future with Cincinnati. But the Reds were very happy they were able to land the 21-year-old. "Best guy on the board," said Reds vice president of amateur scouting Chris Buckley. "We've seen a lot of him. A lot of my bigger guys live in Florida and he's been a really big player for a long time. We liked him quite a bit in high school." Reds executives were watching India play on television from their Draft room and perhaps saw a good omen. In Florida's second regional game of the night against Florida Atlantic, he hit a booming home run to left field. During the regular season, India was the SEC Player of the Year after he batted .365 with 16 home runs and 40 RBIs in 54 games.
