For 10 years, Andruw Jones was one of the best players in the NL.
"Andruw Jones has hit nearly 400 home runs in a big-league career that started in 1996, and he was cruising toward the Hall of Fame before an abysmal 2008 season put the breaks on a splendid career.
But those who have been around him every day since spring training, watching his swing return and seeing him improve at the plate, aren’t surprised by what he has done this season with the Texas Rangers."
I saw it on TV. I saw him all 3 homers. I saw him fail twice to hit the magical 4th homer!
Who did that last? I don't recall.
I do remember that Mike Schmidt of the Phillies did it years ago!
Beyond Jones, the Rangers are now a game up on the Angels.
Of course, we understand that there are 80 games left.
We also understand that LA has a better team, at least a more veteran team.
Anyway, it's so much fun to say July and have the Rangers in contention!
