Good old Pat Burrell, a fixture of my childhood memory. One of the first players I remember as being 'good'. And good he was. One of the best Phillies ever.
STATS baby.
On this day 22 years ago, August 22nd 2003, Pat Burrell hit his 100th home run.
His accomplishment is mentioned at about the 3:15 mark of this video.

I couldn't find footage of his actual homer, but I will tell you what, watching this old school footage of ESPN is deeply trippy. Feels like true time travel. Man I miss those days. Sheesh. Back when ESPN actually focused on sports highlights.
The top movie in the US was 'Freddy vs Jason' which was a pretty awesome horror movie in my opinion. Haven't seen it in years. Will have to watch it with spooky season around the corner.

Pat Burrell, Jason Voorhees, and Freddy Krueger. Who would have that there'd be a connection between these three. LOL.
