  • 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).

  • Chronicles St
    Vol. 70 No. 42 CHRONICLESST. JOSEPH HIGH SCHOOL 1970 May17-May 31, 1970 By Tom Bodle The second half of May arrived, our final stretch of time at St. Joseph High. Transitions had already taken place for student ac- tivities and the leadership of the class of ’71 was taking command. Student leaders were inducted at the underclass awards program May 20th. Spring workouts for football had begun. The class of ‘70 was left to reflect on its four years and ponder the future. The Viking halls were our universe for four years. In times of great social unrest, changes in the Catholic Church, unimaginable ad- vances in science and technology, and changes in teaching meth- odologies, St. Joe’s provided a safe harbor for us to grow, express, learn and celebrate. We were about to set sail from that safe har- bor into our future, into rough seas full of uncertainty, disruption and challenges.
