For all of the crap that Richie Sexson gets here in Seattle, Thursday’s home run was his sixth of the season and 100th since becoming a Mariner. Richie hit the century mark in 463 games, that’s the fastest in team history. Alex Rodriguez reached 100 Mariner home runs in 470 games. I am a huge fan of Big Sexy, but I never thought I’d say that Richie was a more successful Mariner than A-Rod in any category. Nice work Richie, forget about the boos, and the strike outs, and just bask in the glow of 100. But not for too long. Your team needs you. And remember Richie, don’t swing at sliders in the dirt… they eat you up.
