Haney Launches Number 500
Friday, July 5th , 2052
It was a great day for Aaron Haney, but not a good one for his Charlotte Cougars. The 33-year-old right fielder reached a personal milestone with his 500th career homer, but it wasn't enough to beat the New Orleans Crawdads, who came away with a 6-5 victory. Haney finished the day with 2 hits, 1 RBI and 1 run scored.
"Well, I've conceded the fact that you can't will yourself to hit a home run," he said. "I tried hard for the last few days. It was getting to be embarrassing with the crowd standing up every time I came to the plate."
Haney is hitting the ball at a .297 clip over his career. In 1984 games he has delivered 2263 hits, 500 home runs with 1333 RBIs and scored 1381 times.
