Craig Biggio, ordinary guy, finished his career with 668 doubles, among the legends of MLB. Sometimes to give my mind a rest and diversion from stress, I will take a look at baseball statistics. There’s a contiguity and historical contexting about it that can serve that purpose for me. Craig Biggio, a second baseman for the Houston Astros, was intriguing to me because he was such an ordinary guy from around my parts in New Jersey, who finished his career in 2007 with some statistics ranking among the all time, absolute legends of Major League Baseball. I noticed how Biggio might finish 5th all time in doubles if he could pass George Brett in his final season; and what made that interesting was the four guys in front of him on that list. For anyone who knows baseball: Speaker, Rose, Musial and Cobb - there he is, Biggio in that all time elite company - legends of baseball! - and nobody else. Even the five behind him on the top ten list (when he retired) were legendary (in baseball terms, of course) Baseball Hall of Famers: Brett, Lajoie, Yastrzemski and all-time home run leader, Hank Aaron (until bumped as homerun leader by BarryRoids Bonds) All time Doubles Leaders 1. Tristram Speaker 792 2. Pete Rose 746 3. Stan Musial 725 4. Ty Cobb 723 5. Craig Biggio 668
6. Albert Pujols 666 “Bat Albert” ..or is it Roidal Albert, just hit number 666, which prompted this post… 7. George Brett 665 Had hemorrhoids but… “his troubles are all behind him.” 8. Nap Lajoie 657 9. Carl Yastrzemski 646 10. Honus Wagner 640
Of all things, I happened upon a similar baseball Biggio statistic fetishist, but this guy was rooting for Biggio to finish his career the all time number one for having been hit by a pitch (a dubious distinction, but not bad, its as good as walk and you reach first base sure as a single). Biggio finished his career second in being hit by pitch - or as “The Target” who gets “plunked” as this guy called it, naming his blog “Plunk Biggio.” I promise I’m trying to go somewhere cultural with this. The guy also noticed the same thing as me that Biggio might get stuck at 666 doubles. And he wrote this, which is to me, a dynamite characterization of Appalachia snake handling hillbilly talk:
George Brett was also known to have suffered from hemorrhoids during World Series play. He quipped, “my troubles are all behind me” ... these two incidents are mentioned in the blog post. To note, Brett was from Appalachia, West Virginia parts himself.
