– If the Padres Gary Sheffield, 23, wins the triple crown, only one man in history will have won it at a younger age – somebody named Ty Cobb, who did it at 22, in 1909.
– Two great home-run droughts are still going that began with the same swing on June 26, 1991. The Cubs Greg Maddux hasn`t allowed a home run to a righthanded hitter since that day. And the guy who hit that one, Jose Lind, hasn`t homered off anyone – righthanded or lefthanded – since.
