Ann Arbor's Linseman Gets 3000th Hit
The box score from yesterday's game will show that Ann Arborbeat the New York Heroes, 10-4. It will also show that shortstop Alec Linseman went 1-for-3 for the Winged Lingerines. It will not show, however, that Linseman reached the 3000-hit mark for his career.
The 41-year-old Linseman reflected on the achievement after the game. He mused: "In one respect, it's a real milestone, I guess. Yet, it's just a base hit like any other base hit."
Linseman has a lifetime .292 average with 3000 hits, 662 doubles, 63 triples, 131 home runs and 1064 RBIs to date.
