The Nicest Man in Baseball reached a HUGE milestone last night…Jim Thome hit his 600th homerun! That’s…

600 trots around the bases

600 pauses to watch them sail away

600 smiles on the inside and maybe on the outside

600 crowds cheering or booing

600 collective gasps

600 hand slaps, ass slaps, back pats and hugs from your teammates
So…welcome to the #600 Club, Thome! I am glad I got to watch it happen and not to sound cliché but…it couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.
