Today Shawn Green went off going 6 for 6 with 4 bombs, and set a ML record for total bases with 19.
But the thing that stuck out to me was, the guy he past up was Atari League Chicago Subs slugger Joe Adcock.
4 homeruns? I like it. Keep it up Shawn. Joe Adcock hit 4 homeruns for me in game 7 of the RBI championship when i became the first ever to hold the belt.
too bad neither of you guys were smart enough to pick him up... oh thats right, aaron cant find his password... you should check with wholesale cause i gave him the information.
pines, i am impressed that you are up on your current events... i was stuck at work all day and i come home to green going off and my padres getting broomed out of coors field... i hate that yard.
That is quite impressive... I'll take Mark Whiten's 4hr 12rbi game awhile back, but that is one hell of a game!
Now your learning! You have to love references to former Redbirds! Mark "Hard Hittin" Whiten was not the man to fuck with in Cincinatti on that glorious evening. Is there anyone in RBI who has hit 4 dongs in one game before?
In the NES there was Mike Schmidt and in the arcade there was Bob Horner, Wilile Mays, Lou Gehrig and Joe Adcock:

wonder why gil hodges didnt make the dodger squad? he was the last dodger to hit four bombs in one game...
Today i was watching the Rangers play the Cubs at Wrigley, and during the game they had Atari R.B.I. legend Brian Williams come in the booth with them. I think he did an ok job.
Ooops, a free post for Greg.
If it was the former Cubbie, it's Billy Williams - or as we like to call him Billy Dee Williams...
Thats right my mistake, way to be on top of things Gantry.
brian williams huh burnzky... i was gonna say, how could greg watch the game if he is flying to kalamazoo. but of course, that explains it.
