Mookie has a 4-4 night with 3 HRs and 5 RBIs, and a HBP. His OPS is now sitting at 1.074. Anyone watching the game realizes that Mookie’s 3 HR night ties him with Johnny Mize and Sammy Sosa for the most 3 HR games in a career. I am going to go out on a limb and say that before his career is over, he will have that record all by his lonesome.
There is no doubt that Mookie is special, and that he makes the team better. But for me, what is most unfortunate, is that the LA fans cannot watch him at the stadium in his first year in a Dodger uniform, and give him the accolades he so richly deserves.
