Congratulations to Richie Sexson for nailing his 300th career home run Thursday. The Seattle Mariners first baseman hit the first pitch he saw from Masahide Kobayashihyu to give his team a 2-1 lead with his sixth longball of the season and 100th since signing with the Mariners after the 2004 season. Too bad for Richie they lost 3-2 in extras. [ News Tribune ] | [ Bleeding Blue and Teal ]
