GOP Leader: Abortion Is A 'Lifestyle Convenience'
While Alex Rodriguez's milestone homer is going to generate most of the buzz today, let us not forget Frank Thomas' accomplishment. The Big Hurt smashed two home runs against the Rangers today, putting him at 505 for his career. With the two dingers, Thomas passed Eddie Murray on the all-time list and now sits at No. 20. Thomas took pride in passing Murray, his long time friend.
"He's one of my buddies, one of the greatest of all time," he said. "It's a good feeling, a real good feeling."
Right on Thomas' heels is Alex Rodriguez, who hit his 500th home run Saturday against the Kansas City Royals.
"I saw it," Thomas said of Rodriguez's historic shot. "I'm happy for him because it's been stressful for him. Now he's probably going to take off like the rest of his season has been."
Thomas hasn't had the best of seasons this year, but when you step back and realize only 19 guys in the history of baseball have hit more home runs than him -- it probably softens the blow of his disappointing season a bit.
Cheers, Frank.
