One I just noticed in 6.51 when Jim Thome hit 500 HRs:

Monday 10/2/2006: Jim Thome slams 500th homerun
SEATTLE - Seattle's players had every reason to congratulate Jim Thome, who reached a milestone today, slamming his 500th career longball! Along with his 500 homeruns, Jim collected 1880 hits and 1357 RBI in 15 seasons. Jim has managed to hit 30+ homeruns in a season 10 times, and he topped 40 homeruns 6 times. 'My firends always told me that I will do it one day. I never believed it. Good that I was wrong!' His monumental drive, a solo homerun off Jake Peavy in the 6th inning, cleared the fence in left field. The Hall of Fame already has reserved a place for this great player.
