Rigsby Wallops #400
400 home runs is a lot of home runs to hit. It's a number that very few players reach. Today <Eric Rigsby:player#4954> became a member of that exclusive club. He belted it at Todd Berry Memorial Field against the Bulldogs. But sometimes milestone homers don't win the game. The powerful <Illinois:team#74> first baseman got all the headlines, but <California:team#93> came away with the victory. They beat the Warhawks 6-4.

During the postgame interview he told the press, "It's a big relief to get it over. I tried not to think about it, but it's kind of hard when you have a huge sign on the scoreboard staring at you every time you step up to the plate. The home run was nice, but I would have preferred to win the game."

His batting totals for the game showed 2 hits in 5 at-bats, 1 home run and 1 RBI.

The hardworking and dedicated Rigsby also said, "I'll celebrate a little with my family tonight but not too much. This is not the last home run I will hit. I think I have a lot of baseball left in me and have other goals. I'll get back to work tomorrow."

Lifetime Rigsby has connected for 400 home runs, hit .285 and driven in 1058 runs.
