Spurs B.C. Cooper Hits 400th Homer: It was a great day for Emery Cooper, but not a good one for his North London Spurs B.C.. The 34-year-old first baseman reached a personal milestone with his 400th career homer, but it wasn't enough to beat the Nashville G-Strings, who came away with a 9-6 victory. Cooper finished the day with 2 hits, 1 run batted in and 2 runs scored.
"Well, I've conceded the fact that you can't will yourself to hit a home run," he said. "I tried hard for the last few days. It was getting to be embarrassing with the crowd standing up every time I came to the plate."
Cooper has 1784 career hits with a .260 batting average and 400 home runs.
