'Big Unit' Joins 300-win Club

"The Big Unit" Randy Johnson reached an exclusive milestone on June 4th, becoming the just the 24th pitcher to reach that lofty plateau.


Here is a tribute Video commemorating all 300 of Randy Johnson's victories.


I have always been a fan of Randy Johnson pitching, but I will always remember when he killed that bird in a Spring Training game. What are the odds of something like that happening? Unbelievable!


Randy Johnson, in the age of five man roatations,pitch counts, and pitch limits, may be the last to win 300 games for at least the next decade. So enjoy the moment because it may be a while before somebody does it again.

Congratulations to Randy Johnson. He's thrown a no-hitter, a Perfect Game, has struck out nearly 5,000 batters, and has now won his 300th game.

The Greatest Weekend In The History Of Baseball!

This past weekend was the greatest weekend in Baseball History. On Saturday, Alex Rodriguez finally hit his five hundreth homerun, becoming the youngest man ever to hit five hundred homeruns. Alex Rodriguez became the first man since the great Mickey Mantle hit his five hundreth homerun at Yankee Stadium.

Saturday Night, Barry Bonds hit his reord tying 755th homerun (above), tying him with Hank Aaron. I watched it on ESPN and the reaction by the fans to Barry tying the record in San Diego was just what I had expected it to be, with a mix of cheers and boos, but with more cheers than boos. Reguardless of your feelings about Barry and how he did it, he is making people tune in to watch him break the record and he is causing people to come to wherever he goes in droves, so that they can say that they saw Barry Bonds tie (and soon break) the All Time Home Run Record.

The Final Milestone of the week I also saw on ESPN. Tom Glavine, the longtime Pitcher for the Atlanta Braves and the New York Mets, got his three hundreth victory at Wrigley Field against the Chicago Cubs. Many people are saying that Glavine will be the last 300 Game winner, as "The Big Unit" Randy Johnson is currently stuck at 284 victories and may be stuck there, depending on how his back feels and if it can handle the load of pitching 16 more victories.

This was the Greatest Weekend in Baseball History and the Greatest Weekend in the History of Sports. Where else would you have seen three historic milestones in the same weekend?
