Great accomplishment for baseball and relative to it's history, including pre-war.

Peter- Hamilton did set a new AL record, but the Times stated he tied a major league record, which is not true. I already emailed them a correction (others will too).

to each their own...all athletes and celebs are overpaid and many are spoiled and ungrateful...as are many "normal" people.

baseball is still the best game out there...and always will be.

While not a fan of Hamilton, it is a significant accomplishment. And I deem our "oldjudge" worthy of making such posts on the main board. He adds a wealth of knowledge to the board, more than most of us... He's entitled to occasionally digress from old cards.


May 2nd, 1954... In a double header against the NY Giants...
Baseball's perfect warrior / perfect knight is 4 for 4 with 3 HR's and a walk in game one; and then goes 2 for 4, both HR's, and a walk, in game 2. At the ball game is an 8 year old kid, Nate Colbert, who would later get 5 HR's in one day... The Man lost his wife a few days ago, I wish him well.

Nope. Just don't follow modern ball so I really coud care less who hit/pitched what. Just a bunch of over paid players anyways that lost focus on what the game is about and only care about what is being paid to them(most of them IMO). Don't get me started on football If I want to hear about this I can watch ESPN not come to NET 54. News never even broke the radio and I listen to it for 10-12 hrs a day at work. I can see the occasional post about a death, birth, illness, or a historic record being broke but none of that happened. He had a heavy stick for a game. whhhoooo hooooo

I don't think major news posted on the front page, very infrequently, is a big deal. Most times it should be put in the Watercooler section. This was a big baseball event. I don't care for current MLB or new sports in general.....but most members do.

Anyone have any idea of the whereabouts of the actual baseballs? (Just trying to bring it back in a memorabilia context.)

Josh got the last one back. It went into the bull pin and they saved it for him. The other three?

As a Ranger fan from Texas, I was overjoyed at what he did. I was just as thrilled with the Baltimore fans for giving him a standing ovation. True baseball fans.

Obviously he won't keep up his current pace, but 5+ weeks into the 2012 season, Hamilton is on pace for 84 Home Runs and 235 RBI's!!

The funny thing about watching this game was that I was so mad that MLB Network was forcing me to watch the Orioles play the Rangers. And then this happens.
