300 Homers for Kinder Saturday, May 4th, 2019 "I wasn't trying to hit a homer. I just wanted to make contact." That's what Shane Kinder told reporters after he made baseball history today at Citizens Bank Park. The prolific slugger belted home run #300 in the Cincinnati Reds 8-3 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies. The standout right fielder collected 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 4 runs batted in and 1 run scored. "I guess this puts me in baseball's elite," said Kinder. "I don't feel any different. I probably should, but I don't. Still, it is a nice achievement. I did get a little excited, didn't I?" Kinder has played in 1474 games and posted a lifetime .288 average. He has 1679 hits, 328 doubles, 11 triples and 300 homers. In addition he has driven in 1084 runs and scored 937 times. View Boxscore View Game Log |
