David Ortiz has only 300 home runs.

Wow. Has he moved ahead of Jimmy Wynn? Lance Bergman? Three hundred homers.

Gonna be hard to keep Papi out of Cooperstown with those kinds of monster numbers.

I didn't realize a 300-pound guy on performance enhancing cheetos could hit less than 400 homers, but there's always that special exception.

Congratulations, Papi!

At this rate -- 300 homers by, what, age 36 -- you'll pass Troy O'Leary around the time the glaciers have melted and Fenway is underwater.

Two-thirty is within sight! Go for it. And Mo Vaughn says hi.

It seems to me that he hit 297 of them vs the Yankees from 2003 to 2007

Please tell me you'll post John and Suzyn's awe and amazement at the California sunset from this evening's game?

sterling just said that jeter: "Pulled a Castillo" when he made a jeterian play and dropped the pop-up.

Also, I'm surprised no one picked up on the fact that Melky is in the All Star game commercial on Fox

Please tell me that you have the means to find a photo of Suzy kissing John on the kiss cam in Anaheim.

Brian,

When was it in the game? It was Friday night and I was too drunk to listen.

If you go 1 hour 22 minutes in, John and Suzyn salute "Carlos" for turning the lights on in the booth. John's x-ray vision must not have been working!!

Also, A-Rod's homer did not have an IIH, IIF, IIG! Listen in at 1 hour 39 minutes.

I couldn't find the sunset raves. I tried!
