Justin Upton Hits #300 Thursday, September 6th, 2018 Washington defeated Chicago today 5-1 and took some of the joy out of Justin Upton's 300th career home run. "I just wanted to get a good swing on the ball all day," Upton said. "And I did." Despite the loss, it was a good game for the 31-year-old Cubs left fielder. He had 2 hits, scored 1 run and had 1 run batted in. The Nationals manager said, "You could see he was aggressive up there. The worst thing we did was throw him a strike. It probably would have been better if we threw the ball outside of the strike zone every time he came to the plate because he seemed like he was in a hurry to get it over with." Lifetime Upton has played in 1626 games, batted .270 with 300 home runs and 1618 base hits. View Boxscore View Game Log |
