    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).

    Vol. 22 No. 41 Serving MCAS Kaneohe Bay, 1st MEB, Camp H.M. Smith and Marine Barracks. October 21, 1993 Halloween hours set for Oct. 31 GySgt. Randy Price Rows Marshal Office Trick-or-treating on Halloween night is a fun event to be shared by young and old alike, but a little planning for your child's safety before, during, and after this event will help to keep the "fun" in this traditional holiday. When organizing your child's costume, try to select one that is light in color. If that's not possible, it's a good idea to put reflective tape around the ankles, wrist, and on the headdress. While face painting is preferred, masks should be checked to ensure vision, hearing and breathing are as unrestricted as possible. In addition to their "goody" bag, children should carry a flashlight to help make them more visible to motorists on dark streets. Parents should not let their children go trick-or-treating alone. Groups of children accompanied by a responsible teenager or adult are safest, and they should walk on the sidewalks when possible- not in the street. Only well-lighted residences should be approached by trick-or-treater's and children should never step inside the house. Caution children in advance against eating anything they receive while trick-or-treating. While there has not been a problem here were tainted treats, parents should still closely check their child's treats for signs of tampering. Check fruit for punctures or slices and self-wrapped homemade candy should be avoided.

  • Willis Returns to Be Tribe's Pitching Coach by Jordan Bastian / MLB.Com
    Willis returns to be Tribe's pitching coach By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | 2:04 PM ET + 13 COMMENTS CLEVELAND -- The Indians have the ability to return with virtually the same rotation and bullpen next season, and the goal will remain to contend for a World Series crown. That made familiarity an important attribute when it came to filling Cleveland's pitching-coach opening. On Thursday, the Indians turned to a recognizable name for the job, bringing back Carl Willis to fill the role vacated by Mickey Callaway's move to become the Mets' new manager. The hiring of Willis comes just three days after Callaway donned blue pinstripes in his news conference at Citi Field in New York. "We started looking not just at names, but at attributes," Indians manager Terry Francona said. "And then Carl's name kept coming up. So, we moved quickly, because there was a lot of competition out there for pitching coaches. And the fact that he knows so many of our pitchers, he knows our organization, is a huge bonus. He'll hit the ground running." This will be Willis' third stint with the Indians, who most recently employed him as their Triple-A Columbus pitching coach in 2015 before the Red Sox hired him to be their Major League pitching coach that May. Willis also spent time with Cleveland as a special assistant in 2014, giving the organization an additional voice during Spring Training and throughout the season. Willis spent seven years as the Tribe's big league pitching coach under manager Eric Wedge from 2003-09.

  • Here Are Key Faqs About Indians' Offseason by Jordan
    Here are key FAQs about Indians' offseason By Jordan Bastian MLB.com @MLBastian CLEVELAND -- The sting of another early October exit will linger for a while, but the Indians' decision-makers must now turn their attention to next year. This week, manager Terry Francona, along with president of baseball operations Chris Antonetti and general manager Mike Chernoff, have already held end-of-year meetings with Cleveland's players, coaches and staff. The goal is to gather input on this past season, make plans for the offseason months ahead and asssess the direction to take for 2019. "It's really important to separate the feelings from the process," Antonetti said. "The feelings hurt a lot. It's disappointment. It's frustration. It's a lot of things. But what we need to do and what we always do, is we always reflect back organizationally and think about, 'What were the things within our control and what can we do better?' We do that at the end of every season, and this season will be no different. "It's already started, in fact. We've had exit interviews with players. We've got feedback from staff. And we'll do our own internal assessment, and we'll reach out to others and get those reflections back from it and try to learn from it. What are things that we can do better as an organization and improve upon for next year?" With that in mind, here are some FAQs about the Tribe's offseason: 1. How many Cleveland players will be eligible for free agency this winter? The Indians will have four high-profile free agents this winter in third baseman Josh Donaldson, left fielder Michael Brantley, lefty Andrew Miller and righty Cody Allen.
