Que se dillio:
Alex Rodriguez finally hit his 500th career homerun this afternoon at the stadium. Love him or hate him, it's a tremendous accomplishment, as he becomes the youngest ballplayer every to do so. Barry Bonds is still on 754 for his career. Oh, and the Mets take on the Cubbies on *vurp* FOX.
