Medwick Makes 300 Mark:
The crowd roared -- they knew they were seeing history -- and Joe Medwick was delighted, too. The 24-year-old Owls left fielder was making history with his 300th career homer. The crowd buzzed and roared again when Medwick stuck his head out of the dugout for a curtain call.
"Never, as a kid, did I ever think I'd hit even one," he told BNN after hitting No. 300 in a 9-8 victory over Cal State Bakersfield. Medwick went 1-for-4 in the game, had 3 runs batted in, and scored 1 run.
His career stats show that Medwick has batted .299 and connected for 300 home runs.
