JULIO

I'm watching a bit of the Mets game against the Diamondbacks, though I don't honestly think I'll make it for much longer as I'm falling asleep as I sit here and tomorrow is a very full day.

At 48 years, 8 months and twelve days, Julio Franco just became the oldest player in major league baseball to ever hit a home run - a beautiful two run homer to put the Mets up 3-0!

Any idea who held the record before tonight?

Julio Franco!

The man is ageless and when he scored each of last season's two homers he was the oldest man to have ever done it too. So he continues to break his own records as he puts everything he's got into every game he plays in.

I hope I'm as dedicated to what I'm doing as he is and enjoying it just as much when I get to his age!
