Reese Launches Number 400 Friday, April 13th , 2063 400 home runs is a lot of home runs to hit. It's a number that very few players reach. Today Carson Reese became a member of that exclusive club. He belted it at Victors Field against the Roadrunners. But sometimes milestone homers don't win the game. The powerful Calgary center fielder got all the headlines, but Texas came away with the victory. They beat the Clippers 9-8. 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 1 hit in 3 at-bats, 1 home run and 2 runs batted in. The hardworking and dedicated Reese 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." In his career Reese is batting .306 with a total of 400 home runs.
