San Francisco Giants vs. Washington Nationals - Box Score - June 04, 2009 - ESPN

The Big Unit wins #300

He's not what he used to be (only two strikeouts in six innings), but the man can still pitch. Six innings pitched, allowing only two hits, no earned runs. He is a respectable 5-4 this year.

A Randy memory: for a brief time between his glory tears with Seattle and his glory years with Arizona, a half of a season to be exact, we had 'im on our side in Houston. He started 11 games, winning ten of them, with a 1.28 ERA and 116 K's in 84 innings. And then he was gone with a fat contract, just like Beltran after his amazing half-year with us between Kansas City and New York. (He was 28 for 28 in stolen bases, hit 23 regular season dingers, then 8 post-season dingers in 46 at-bats, and added another 6-for-6 in post-season stolen bases.)

Houston - the place to go when you have half a season to kill before free agency! Just don't buy a house or anything like that. You might not even want to unpack your suitcases.
