On this date in 1929, Babe Ruth became the first MLB player to hit 500 career home runs 👏

At that time, Rogers Hornsby had the second-most homers with 263.

Ruth has 714 career home runs, the third-most all-time 🤝

50th Anniversary Season art installation for the @mariners

50 player paintings in just over 2 weeks? Crazy.
Creating a piece of literal baseball history? Priceless.

Eternally grateful for the Mariners for this opportunity 🙏🏻

🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨

Longtime Astros beat writer Brian McTaggart has reported that Rob Refsnyder has officially chosen to retire.

While I’ve made it well known that Refsnyder is my favorite player, I must put being commissioner of the HoPG first. He never played in more than 93 games in a season, so tomorrow the channel will determine his Hall of Pretty Good eligibility.

Heard a story of an AAU coach who put all 10 of his players on the floor at tip off. The refs told him that 5 needed to get off the court. He didn't and got a tech. He turned to the parents behind the bench and said, "See, I told you that they all couldn't start!"

Nellie… You didn't just draft me. You believed in me. You saw things in my game before I ever realized I could do them. I've said it a million times and I will always say it: I don't think my career could have turned out how it did without you being my first coach and giving me the freedom to play my game. I can only say THANK YOU. For everything.

RIP legend.
