The crowd roared — they knew they were seeing history — and Joel Elvàviel was delighted, too. The 37-year-old Uruk-hai shortstop was making history with his 500th career homer. The crowd buzzed and roared again when Elvàviel stuck his head out of the dugout for a curtain call.
“Never, as a kid, did I ever think I’d hit even one,” he told BNN after hitting No. 500 in a 18-0 victory over Numenor. Elvàviel went 4-for-6 in the game, had 5 runs batted in, and scored 4 runs.
Elvàviel has played in 2306 games with a .245 career batting average and 2041 hits. He has also scored 1428 runs and driven in 1293 runs with 501 home runs.
