He also has "Shortstop" RBIs. That's a lot- we think.
Despite missing more than his fair share of games this season, Jimmy Rollins managed to accomplish the unthinkable. With three games left to play, Rollins has accumulated 737 home runs over the course of the 2010 season, and hopes to add to the total.
Ryan Howard proposed a lineup change to Charlie Manuel, where Howard would bat leadoff and Rollins clean-up. After looking at the stat sheet, and double checking his finding with the above CSN screen grab from Wednesday night's Phillies game, Manuel decided that the move would be for the best.
I never thought a switch hitter would break Barry Bonds' record of 73 set back in 2001, but we were all clearly proven wrong. Congratulations J-Roll.
