read the paper today, and the writer said 500 runs isn't quite the magic # it used to be.
big mac has 1100 fewer hits than bill buckner, 1000 less than tim raines, 400 fewer than todd zeile. fewer runs than fred mcgriff, joe carter, and andres galarraga. one gold glove, struck out once every 3.8 at bats and hit better than .300 once--that one time was when he played more than 100 games in a season. (all from todays ark dem gazette)...
there is a cloud of suspicion. you can't help but wonder if those 500 runs were aided. if so, what the heck is so special about it??
