NUMBERS

400

Home runs in the career of Atlanta’s Chipper Jones. The Braves’ third baseman is the third switch-hitter in history to reach 400 homers, following Mickey Mantle (536) and Eddie Murray (504).

7

RBIs in a span of two at-bats for Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Jason Michaels. He hit a three-run homer in the first inning against the Astros Thursday night, his first at-bat since hitting a pinch-hit grand slam in the Pirates’ 5-4 victory in St. Louis on Monday.

26

Consecutive games in which Blue Jays’ Alex Rios has hit safely against the New York Yankees after a single in Toronto’s loss. He is tied for the longest current streak against one team. Seattle’s Ichiro Suzuki has hit in 26 straight against Kansas City.
