Dunham Makes 300 HR Mark
He has done it!

Hank Dunham has reached the 300 home run mark. He did it today, but the Hosho Reliables still dropped the game to the Denki Dynamics by the score of 6-3.

"Number 300 was hard to come by. I think the pressure was getting to me a little bit. I got a call a few days ago from a couple of guys that have been through this and they just said, 'Keep going, have some fun. Just be you.' I think that helped me a little bit, having those guys make a call to me and try to settle some of the nerves down."

On his historic day Dunham was 1-for-4 with 2 runs batted in and 1 run scored.

Lifetime Dunham has hit .243 with 1428 hits, 300 home runs, 834 RBIs and scored 901 runs.
