McGwire Slams Milestone Homer
Toronto's outstanding first baseman Mark McGwire joined the 600 home run club today at SkyDome with a booming blast in the Blue Jays win over the Orioles. They topped Baltimore 15-3.

On his milestone day McGwire had 3 hits in 4 at-bats with 5 runs batted in and 2 runs scored.

Tongue-in-cheek he told the press, "Don't tell me when I get close to the next milestone. Just tell me after I reach it. It will be easier to hit that way."

Lifetime McGwire has played in 1952 games, batted .236 with 600 home runs and 1615 base hits.
