Johnson Makes 400 Mark
Red Johnson circled the bases and raised his arm in triumph. He had finally hit his 400th home run. It was a homer for a lot of people: himself, his teammates past and present, his former managers and coaches, and especially his family, who sat near the plate cheering his every at-bat during the past few games.

Johnson spoke with BNN and said, "I knew number 400 would come sooner or later. I had to keep reminding myself, 'Relax, relax, just let it happen, let it happen.' And it finally did."

His milestone homer came in the New York Gothams 7-4 win over the Chicago Chiefs. Johnson went 1 for 3 in the game, scored 1 run, and batted in 2.

In his 1873-game career Johnson is hitting .294 with 2033 hits, 400 home runs, 1258 runs scored and 1254 RBIs.
