More Homerun Milestones (and Nomaaaaah update)

Alex Rodriguez hit his 500th homerun today. At 32 years and 8 days of age, he has become the youngest player ever to join the club. Also today, Barry Bonds hit his 755th career homerun, which ties him with Hank Aaron for first of all time. See this page for ESPN.com's milestone tracker.

In other news, Dodgers third baseman Nomaaaaah Garciaparra has been hitting much better lately (including for power!) and his OPS is now (barely) over .700. If he keeps this up, he may actually get his OPS up to a decent level in the reasonably near future. Of course, we've been losing lots of games lately and we've now fallen 3 games out of first and 1.5 games out of second. That sucks.
