The Big Unit!

There are three very illustrious clubs in baseball and only a handful will ever be welcomed into these clubs. They are the 300 Win club for pitchers, the 3000 Hit club, and the 500 Home Run club. The Big Unit, Randy Johnson is the latest to earn a spot in one of these clubs. Randy pitched 6 scoreless innings to grab is 300th win. He is only the 24 pitcher in the history of baseball to do such a thing. The leader of the 300 win club is and always will be C. Young with 511 wins. Randy Johnson joins the likes of Walter Johnson, Greg Maddux, and Tom Glavin.

The 500 Home Run club is led by Barry Bonds, despite the allegations of steroids, I think he is still arguably one of the greatest players to ever play baseball. There are only 25 people in this club and the next play with a chance to join is Carlos Delgado and he has 23 more homers to go.

I believe the 3000 hit club is a very difficult one to get accepted into. Barry Bonds with 726 home runs isn't even in this club. It is led by Pete Rose with 4256 hits and he is only joined by 27 others, none of them still playing the game. The closest active player to joining this club is Ken Griffy Jr., but he only has 2711, and sad to say, hes not going to make it.

It takes a very special talent and a great athlete to have the honor of being accepted into one of these there career landmark clubs. Congratulations to Randy Johnson.
