這不是從A到A+
從499到500
歷史上有諸多名將也臨場手軟

Jimmie Foxx (1941) 61 ABs
Harmon Killebrew (1971) 43 ABs
Alex Rodriguez (2007) 29 ABs
Mickey Mantle (1967) 28 ABs
Eddie Murray (1996) 21 ABs
Ken Griffey Jr. (2004) 21 ABs

或許將成為本世紀全壘打王的 A-Rod
如今也拖了29個打數
終於在32歲又338天達成生涯500轟
超越 Jimmie Foxx 成為史上最年輕有此成就的球員

A-Rod 生涯在8月份已量產 103 發全壘打
比任何一個月份皆多出 14 以上
又於第1局敲出 94 轟
比任何一局皆多出 24 支以上

這是 A-Rod 的生涯第 1885 場出賽
史上有兩位球員用更少的場次達成生涯 500 轟
那就是 Mark McGwire (1,639) 和 Babe Ruth (1,740)
