Tolkien Baseball News Article | |  | Saturday, August 27th, 2016: Githrarith Booms 300-th Homer "I wasn't trying to hit a homer. I just wanted to make contact." That's what Shatai Githrarith told reporters after he made baseball history today at Old League Park. The prolific slugger belted home run #300 in the Carrock Bears 9-4 victory over the Weathertop Witch Kings.
The standout right fielder collected 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 4 runs batted in and 1 run scored.
"I guess this puts me in baseball's elite," said Githrarith. "I don't feel any different. I probably should, but I don't. Still, it is a nice achievement. I did get a little excited, didn't I?"
His lifetime stats show that Githrarith has hit .259 and connected for 300 home runs. | |
