Number 2500 for Latulippe
Friday, July 14th , 2062
Dallas's Francois Latulippe got the standing ovation -- but the Seattle Sasquatch got the win.
It was a special day for him at Metroplex Park. A day when Latulippe notched hit #2500 of his career. The fans went wild when he did. Even the Sasquatch fans applauded.
The Texans left fielder went 1-for-6 in a losing cause as Seattle spoiled the party with the 6-5 victory.
In the postgame interview, a downhearted Latulippe told the media, "We lost -- It's not about individual accomplishments -- we lost."
When pressed further, he admitted his pride in reaching the 2500-hit mark, "A lot of great players never get there. I'm proud, but I would be happier if we had won."
During his 1841-game career Latulippe has batted .336 and collected 2500 hits, 94 home runs and 606 RBIs.
