I have his pawtucket card.

[stocker323]

Where is he now?

Last I heard he was in Milwaukee's system but that was 2 years ago I think.

I have a question. What was the best homer average combo ever?

[stevece80]

Based on what? How much weight are you giving to each stat to come to a conclusion? I'd say look at any of Babe Ruth's seasons.

 

And I don't know what you mean by "combo", are you referring to a tandem of players, or a combination of the two stats?

 

And for what it's worth, it doesn't take much to find out where Alcantara played this year:

The Veracruz Reds are a Mexican League team. Teammates of his include Pasqual Coco who used to be on the Blue Jays, and no one else besides a Luis Garcia (not the one the Red Sox traded in the Hermanson deal, and then the Cardinals traded for Chuck Finley) who played with the Orioles in 2002.

Like who has the best homer and avg combo.

 

Like hitting 379 and 50 homers would be the best maybe. Like who had the two best together.

Yea he was in AAA Milwaukee in '02 but i heard somewhere that he played in mexico the year after.

after watching that for about a million times..... it's amazing the legs on the bench in the background don't move/jump/twitch. It was right after a HBP after all.

 

As for "the kick". It's actually an extremely smart move by knocking down the catcher first. He got out there all the way to the mound untouched. It's too bad he went nuts because he was a great hitter.

[Soxfan1]

I got that from CalvinHobs.

[whereisnomar]

Actually, your right, no one on the bench even twitched.

He looked like an idiot spinning around near the mound too, trying to find someone to fight but no one was anywhere near him.

[Beckett95]

We should bring him back to platoon with Nixon in RF... He had a promising career untill that incident. He would have been a pretty good player in the MLB.
