July 8 -- Reds' Rookie Elly De La Cruze swipes 3 on 2 Pitches

FIRST-YEAR MEMBER CHRIS PETRIK WINS THE 2023 300 CLUB BATTING TITLE AT .303 DESPITE LATE SURGE BY SPARKS; JOHN LANGE WINS PITCHERS, DANNY COSTIGAN HOMERS, BRUCE MILLER NAILS STOLEN BASES AT 73 BY ACUNA; NO RBI PRIZE. 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)
