In tonight's 6-3 Texas Ranger victory over the Florida Marlins, former Jay farmhand Michael Young became the all-time franchise leader in hits for the Rangers. His new total, currently sitting at 1,748, is one more than that amassed for Texas by future Hall of Fame catcher Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez.
Come to think of it "future Hall of Famer" is a phrase that just might, maybe apply to Young, too, if he keeps it up another five or six years. Young is 33, so that's not impossible to imagine.
Neither Esteban Loiaza nor Darwin Cubillan were available for comment. Congratulations to one of the Great Game's finest!
