500 Home Runs for Dixon
The Dublin Porters had something to celebrate today even though they dropped a 16-4 decision to Kyiv. The reason -- the splendid slugger Eric Dixon hit his 500th career homer in today's contest at Kyiv Grounds.

"I'm fortunate to be here," Dixon told the media after the game. "The Porters have a classy organization and some great fans. Homer #500 was for them."

Lifetime Dixon has played in 2055 games, batted .262 with 500 home runs and 1970 base hits.
