(AP) —
Ken Griffey Jr. are providing
baseball with a riveting exclama
tion point to the season — chas
ing home runs, history and, by
the way, the calendar.
And baseball, still trying to
rebuild its image from the disas
trous strike that canceled the
1994 World Series, couldn’t be
more grateful for the zest the two
sluggers have put in a season
with precious few pennant races.
Statistics are special in base
ball, made more so by history and
records that cover almost 100
years. So while Dan Marino’s 48
touchdown passes is the NFL sea
son mark, and Wayne Gretzky’s
92 goals is the NHL record, they
are not remembered nearly as
easily as Roger Maris’ 61 home
runs in 1961.
slugger’s biograpl
"I got some hits andhitst
balls hard, but I couldn’t
over the fence,” he said. “Ini
there were people in bast
rooting for me to break
record.”
He even recalled a lumbe;
dash around the bases foi
inside-the-park homer, nosii
matter for someone his size,
being called safe at home, “wli
was really out.”
Ruth’s record was establis:
with its own exclamation
17 home runs in September
one has come close to that pa
Maris hit nine in the
month of the 1961 season

exhaust. Excellent shape. $2,800. 693-9755.
Entering
Thursday’s
games, McGwire
had 53 home
runs and Griffey
52, each with an
outside shot at
Maris’ record set
36 years ago. The
problem for
both is time, a
precious com
modity that is running out for
them. With just over a week to
play, there may not be enough
games for either. After Thursday,
McGwire has 10 to play and
Griffey nine.
As the games dwindle, so do the
opportunities. Hitters grip the bat a
litde more tightly, and pitchers bear
down a little harder. Sluggers have
been down this treacherous road
before and found out how difficult
the task can be.
Before Maris chased Babe
Ruth’s record of 60 home runs in
a season, the closest anyone had
come to the mark was 58,
achieved by Jimmy Foxx in 1932
and matched by Hank Greenberg
in 1938.
Foxx had 54 homers with four
games to play. He hit two in his
next game and added two more in
the last three games. A nice run
but too little, too late.
Greenberg had a more realistic
chance. With 16 games to play, he
had 51 homers. In the next six
games, he hit five homers. With 10
