It took him three starts but Bartolo Colon finally got it. The Rangers' 45-year-old starting pitcher tied Juan Marichal with his 243rd career win Wednesday night. They're tied for the most wins by a Dominican Republic native. Two more wins and Colon will tie Dennis Martinez for the most wins by a Latin American born pitcher. That's some historic stuff and was an emotional moment for the usually ultra relaxed veteran.
"Yeah, of course. I tied this mark with a Hall of Famer so I feel very proud and honored to do that," said Colon after improving to 3-3.
