I hate that too, he would have made a run at the 700 club I am fairly certain of that.. Unbelievable CF as well. Another one who made the game look easy. He was smooth.

Haha that is awesome. I actually had a beagle named Chipper Jones.

18 total bases tonight for Hambone. New AL record. 2 shy of the Major League mark set by Shawn Greene in 2002.

I'll hang up and listen.

Shawn Greene quietly had himself a career. Assuming he wasn't eating PEDS like PEZ.

I have a kgjr autographed card and ball set that I cherish.

Watching him and frank thomas trade homers in the king dome as a kid is one of my favorite life experiences

Wow, man that is awesome. Always respected Frank. Would have loved to have seen either one of those guys play, especially in their primes

I would take Kemp quite simply because he walks better and is a better defender.

But it's close.

Played 15 years in the Big Leagues, with 328 home runs, 1070 RBI, and a nice .283/.355/.493 slash line. Nice, very nice career.

Josh averages more BB when you compare their BB to Games played. How is Kemp a better defender?

Last three years Kemp has had a higher walk percentage than Hamilton.

And you are right. He's not a better defender. I meant base runner. Looked at my stats wrong.
