Block injured, possibly done for good

To start the day the Sluggers are 2.5 games behind New York for the division and 2.5 behind Toledo for the wild card. This is the only pennant race in APBA this season.

Roger Chillingworth takes the mound against Orlando looking for his 13th win. In the bottom 1st, Rob Block is hit in the wrist by a John Rachunok fastball. X-rays indicated a break, and Block's season is over. He finished the year batting .197 with 25 homers and 54 RBI in 117 games. As he's hit under .200 for thelast two years, Block may not play in 2008. If so he finishes with 742 homers and 1969 RBI. With Barry Bonds and Conan already passing Hank Aaron's 755 mark, there is little incentive for Block to play just to chase a record.
