THANKS TO OUR MEMBERS
FOR A GREAT 73RD YEAR!

The 73rd season of The 300 Club comes to
a close with a solid win by Chris
Petrik. Congratulations, Chris! We
recorded only one DQ Ballot in a
resounding success for our switch to 5
Alternates. MLBs rule changes appear to
be working very well; the time is down
and the action is up. Thanks again to
all our Members and we look forward to
Mid March 2024 to get it all rolling
again!
In the top of the 7th of a
Saturday afternoon game in Milwaukee on
July 8th, the Reds' sensational rookie
3B, Elly De La Cruz, stole 2nd, 3rd, and
Home on 2 pitches to lead the Reds to an
8-5 win over the Brewers. Above, De La
Cruz is safe at home as the ball tricked
away from Brewers C Wilson Contreras and
HP Umpire John Tumpane made the call. De
La Cruz had a major impact on the Reds'
season as they nearly made the playoffs,
so this qualifies for me as photo of the
year. (Photo: Morry Gash, AP News)
