MAJOR LEAGUE WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017

BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON

On Sunday afternoon against the at , All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base 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 season since (38-23-23) and (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 is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).

MLB Players to Post a 20-20-20 Season, 1901-Present

On Monday night, right-hander Jacob deGrom won his eighth consecutive start in a 5-3 win over the at Petco Park. The 29-year-old tossed 8.0 , permitting two runs on fi ve hits with two walks and eight . The 2014 Rookie of the Year has now pitched at least 8.0 innings in fi ve of his last eight starts dating back to June 12th.

With a victory in eight straight outings, deGrom became the fi fth Mets ever to accomplish the feat. That mark ties him for the longest single-season stretch in Club history, and puts him one shy of matching for the all-time franchise mark. Viola won nine consecutive starts across two seasons from September 23, 1989 - May 12, 1990. In addition to Viola and deGrom, the three other Mets to win at least eight straight starts were Hall of Famer (August 26-September 27, 1969), (August 23-September 30, 1988) and Bobby Jones (April 30-June 9, 1997).

The eight-start winning streak is also tied with of the for the longest such streak in the Majors this season. Kershaw’s streak, which dated back to June 7th, was snapped on Sunday afternoon, when he departed in the second with a back injury. In the eight starts, Jacob has a 1.61 ERA, allowing 11 earned runs on 39 hits with 12 walks and 58 strikeouts over 61.2 .

The last Major League pitcher to win nine consecutive starts in a single season was of the in 2012 ( won nine straight between 2015-16, and won 10 straight between 2015-16). Weaver went 9-0 across nine starts from June 20th-August 6th. The last NL pitcher to pick up a victory in nine consecutive starts of a single season was Houston’s from July 27-September 8, 2002. Since 1962, the fi rst year of play for the Mets, only 13 NL pitchers have compiled winning streaks of at least nine consecutive starts (full list below), and deGrom will attempt to join that group in his next start.

With Monday’s victory, deGrom improved to 12-3 on the season with a 3.30 ERA. His 12 wins are tied with Boston’s Sale, Kansas City’s Jason Vargas and Arizona’s for second in the Majors behind Kershaw (15). deGrom is now 9-2 in 14 starts following a Mets loss this season, which is the most wins for any Major League pitcher in starts following a team loss according to Elias.

Entering play today, Jose Altuve of the is in the midst of a career-best 18-game , dating back to July 2nd, which is the longest streak by an Astros hitter since posted a 23-game hitting streak from May 19-June 13, 2011. During his torrid stretch, the 2017 All-Star is slashing .513/.552/.775 with19 runs scored, 41 hits, nine doubles, four home runs and 19 RBI. During a 15-game stretch from July 4th-24th, Altuve tallied 37 hits in 68 at-bats en route to becoming the fi rst player to accomplish the feat since Hall of Famer Rogers Hornsby in July 1923 (37-for-62).

Following the fi rst game of the month, Altuve has registered a hit in every July contest, logging multi-hit eff orts in 13 of 19 games. Included in his off ensive outburt were six three-hit games and two four-hit eff orts. The 27-year-old slugger entered the Midsummer Classic having recorded three hits in each of his previous fi ve contests, becoming the fi rst player in club history to do so, and the ninth in MLB history. Hall of Famer George Brett last accomplished the feat for the during the 1976 campaign.

Heading into the fi nal weekend of the month, Altuve’s batting average for July is .494 (41-for-83), which would match Brett for the second-highest in the month of July. With a minimum of 80 at-bats, Hall of Famer Ty Cobb is the only player in Major League history to bat over .500 in July, hitting .521 (50-for-96) during the 1918 season. Overall, only eight players have batted over .500 in a single calendar month, including 2017 Hall of Fame inductee Iván Rodríguez (2004), (2000), Hall of Famers Harry Heilmann (1927), Hornsby (1924), (1920) and Cobb (1918), as well as “Shoeless” Joe Jackson (1916, 13), who is the only player to have done so twice.

On Wednesday afternoon, , the and offi cials from the District of Columbia unveiled the offi cial logo of the 2018 All-Star Game presented by Mastercard. The 89th Midsummer Classic will be played at Nationals Park on Tuesday, July 17th, with the National League as the home team during the contest.

Those in attendance for Wednesday’s unveiling prior to Washington’s game against the included Marla Lerner Tanenbaum, Principal Owner of the Washington Nationals; Baseball Commissioner Robert D. Manfred, Jr.; Washington, DC Mayor Muriel Bowser; veteran Nationals All-Stars , , and ; and Nationals , an All-Star as both a player and a manager.

The offi cial logo of the 2018 All-Star Game is as patriotic as its iconic setting. The focal point of the mark is the pristine white United States Capitol dome, which is crowned with the bronze Statue of Freedom. A U.S. fl ag proudly waves behind it, while the logo is surrounded by a ring of stars. The two stars on the red ring represent the competing leagues, and the six stars on the navy fi eld symbolize their divisions. The ribbon proudly states the location and year of the Midsummer Classic, and to punctuate the mark, the MLB batter is in the colors of scarlet and navy honoring the host franchise.

Commissioner Manfred said: “Major League Baseball is delighted to return the All-Star Game to Washington, DC for the fi rst time in nearly 50 years in 2018. Today’s logo unveiling marks the start of an exciting year for our sport in the nation’s capital, and we look forward to showcasing our game’s brightest stars in an outstanding city and ballpark next summer.”

“I know that Washington will be one of the best host cities because nothing could be more fi tting, exciting, or appropriate than hosting the All-Star Game for the national pastime in the nation’s capital,” said Mark D. Lerner, Washington Nationals Principal Owner and Vice Chairman. “The logo conveys that spirit of celebrating one of our most beloved traditions in the city that uniquely belongs to us all.”

Mayor Bowser said: “We are thrilled to host the 2018 All-Star Game here in Washington, DC. Many people already know that DC is home to one of the best baseball teams in the league, and now we have the opportunity to show baseball fans from around the nation a side of DC that not everyone knows about – local DC. From the Southwest Waterfront near Nationals Park to the U Street neighborhood where Duke Ellington had his roots, there is truly something for everyone in DC, and we look forward to showcasing our city and ensuring that all players and visitors have a tremendous experience at next year’s game.”

The Nationals will host their fi rst All-Star Game, while the city of Washington will become a fi ve-time host (also 1937, 1956, 1962 [1st] and 1969) when the 89th Midsummer Classic is played next July 17th at Nationals Park, which opened in 2008. The 2018 season will mark the 14th season of play for the Nationals. HISTORY OF THE TRADE DEADLINE

The non-waiver Major League trading deadline has been July 31st since the 1986 season (with the exception of August 1st in 2016).

Prior to 1986, the non-waiver deadline for trades within each League was June 15th and there were also distinctions between when intraleague and interleague trades could be made. Waivers were necessary at all times for interleague trades, with the exception of two non-waiver interleague trading periods: February 15th – April 1st and fi ve days after conclusion of – the day before the last scheduled day of the Winter Meetings.

The fi rst appearance of a trade deadline in the Major Leagues came when the National League established a deadline of August 20th in 1917. After that date, a player had to clear NL waivers before being traded. The followed suit in 1920, but with a deadline of July 1st. The following year, both the AL and NL agreed on a deadline of August 1st. On December 14, 1922, the deadline was changed to June 15th after gaining approval at the Joint Major League meetings held at the Hotel Commodore in New York. It would stay June 15th until after the 1985 season.

In 1953, the interleague trading rules were amended as to require waivers between June 15th and the conclusion of the championship season. The fi rst non-waiver interleague trading period was created for the 1959 off -season and it was from November 21st – December 15th. In 1970, the start of the period was moved to begin fi ve days after the World Series instead of November 21st. Seven years later, a second non-waiver interleague trading period was created, February 15th – March 15th. In 1981, that period was extended through April 1st and was in eff ect until all distinctions between interleague and intraleague trading were abolished prior to the 1986 season.

START ME UP: Leadoff hitter had four hits on Sunday, while Jose Altuve had four hits for the Astros. According to Elias, it marked the fourth game (9.0 inn.) in the last eight years in which each leadoff hitter had at least four hits. Since 2010, Jones and Altuve joined and Ian Desmond (April 6, 2011), and José Reyes (Aug. 19, 2016), and Adam Jones and Trea Turner (Aug. 23, 2016).

KLUBER’S K’S: Corey Kluber recorded 14 strikeouts on Sunday afternoon, reaching that threshold for the fi fth time in his career (career-high is 18 K’s; had 14 K’s in each of the other four). Kluber now has nine double-digit punchout games this season and 33 for his career. The right-hander established a new franchise record with 10 consecutive starts of eight-or-more strikeouts, surpassing Hall of Famer Bob Feller, who pulled the trick in nine straight, April 16-May 21, 1946.

BOTTOM’S UP: The bottom of Detroit’s lineup did serious damage on Sunday in the Tigers’ 9-6 win at . Their 7-8-9 hitters – James McCann, Alex Presley and José Iglesias – went 9-for-14 with six runs scored, each contributing three hits and scoring twice. It marks the fi rst time in nearly six years that a Major League team’s starters in the bottom three slots of the order each registered at least three hits and two runs scored in the same game.

HOMERFEST: In their weekend set against the White Sox, the Royals clubbed 10 homers over the three-game span, accomplishing feat at home for the fi rst time in club history.

AP REACHES ANOTHER MILESTONE: logged his 1,700th career run scored Saturday on Andrelton Simmons’ in the third inning. Pujols is just one of 26 players all-time to score 1,700 runs (last player to reach mark was in 2011), and is just the sixth player in history to amass 600 homers and 1,700 runs scored, joining Hall of Famers Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth and Willie Mays, as well as Barry Bonds and .

BACK-TO-BACK, FOR THE WIN: Rougned Odor (game-tying two-run homer) and Carlos Gomez (go-ahead solo homer) hit back-to-back home runs in a span of three pitches on Sunday in St. Petersburg to provide the fi nal 6-5 margin in the Rangers’ come-from-behind win. Elias notes that it marked the fi rst time that Texas hit back-to-back homers in the eighth inning-or-later, one to tie and the second to provide a lead, since May 6, 2010 vs. Kansas City. With two outs in the eighth inning of that game, Josh Hamilton (solo) and (solo) went back-to-back in a span of three pitches off Joakim Soria for a 13-10 victory.

WELCOME TO THE SHOW: On Monday, the Red Sox selected third baseman Rafael Devers to the Major League roster from Triple-A Pawtucket. Devers will not turn 21-years-old until October 24th. The last Red Sox players to appear in a game at 20-or-younger were teammate Xander Bogaerts (2013), Jeff Suppan (1995), Rich Gedman (1980) and (1972).

…THERE’S A WADE: With his Sunday night, Cubs Wade Davis set the single-season franchise record for consecutive save chances converted, as he’s been successful in his fi rst 20 opportunities this year. His streak surpassed Tom Gordon in 2001, Ryan Dempster in 2005 and Carlos Marmol in 2012, all of whom had 19 straight successful save chances in a single campaign. PURPLE ACES: Denver native and University of Evansville product earned his 10th win on Sunday. He is tied with teammate Antonio Senzatela for the most wins among Major League rookie pitchers this season. According to Elias, Freeland and Senzatela are the fi rst pair of rookie teammates in 80 years to each reach 10 wins prior to August, since the Boston Braves’ Lou Fette had 13 wins and Jim Turner had 11 victories through July in 1937. Both of Boston’s rookie hurlers fi nished that season with 20 wins.

THE ROOK: With his 26th home run of the season on Sunday, Dodgers rookie passed Wally Berger (25) for the most homers in his fi rst 80 career Major League games. Bellinger then added to his total on Monday with his 27th longball of the season.

500: José Reyes stole his 500th career base in the eighth inning Monday night, becoming the second active player with 500-or-more stolen bases (Ichiro Suzuki, 508). Reyes is the 39th player in Major League history to steal 500 bases, and became the ninth player in history with more than100 triples, 100 homers and 500 stolen bases, joining Hall of Famers , Paul Molitor, , Hugh Duff y, Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner, as well as Kenny Lofton and Harry Stovey.

REWRITING THE RECORD BOOKS: With his two-home run game on Thursday against the Milwaukee Brewers, Ryan Zimmerman matched Frank Howard (237) for the most home runs in D.C. baseball history. Earlier in the week, Zimmerman also established the record for the most doubles in D.C. baseball history (362). Earlier in July, Zimmerman became the Nationals/Expos franchise home run leader with his 235th career homer, which surpassed Vladimir Guerrero (234).

K-ARLOS RODON: On Tuesday, Carlos Rodón became the fi rst pitcher in baseball’s modern era (since 1900) to record 11-plus strikeouts in 4.0 IP-or-less. His six outings with at least 10 strikeouts are the most by a White Sox pitcher through his fi rst 59 career appearances.

HOMERIN’ MATT: With a home run in three consecutive games from Saturday-Monday, Oakland’s Matt Chapman joined Ryon Healy (May 4th-7th) as the only A’s player to homer in three straight contests this season. Chapman also became the fi rst A’s rookie to homer in three consecutive games since Josh Donaldson (August 29-31, 2012).

LIGHT YEARS AHEAD: Rookie Paul DeJong drilled his 13th home run of the season Tuesday night, and by doing so, delivered an RBI for a team-high fi fth straight game, the longest streak by a Cardinals rookie since Albert Pujols logged RBI streaks of eight and six games during his rookie season (2001). DeJong’s seven homers in the month of July have matched the Cardinals rookie mark, shared by J.D. Drew (1999) and Rip Repulski (1953), and his 15 extra-base hits this month are the most by a Cardinals rookie in the month of July since 1931, when Pepper Martin had 19 and Ripper Collins posted 15.
