Norton Smashes 300th Homer
The Chicago Cubs defeated the Atlanta Braves 14-7 yesterday in a game that featured Kevin Norton's 300th career home run.

In the clubhouse, the Cubs right fielder spoke about the milestone achievement. "To be honest, I don't even remember my first home run," he said. "But this one I don't think I'll forget. Who knows if I'll hit another hundred, or fifty, or even ten?"

On his historic day, Norton banged out 3 hits in 5 at-bats and scored 3 runs with 1 RBI.

In 1785 career games Norton has batted .294 with 1925 hits with 374 doubles, 71 triples and 300 home runs. He has also collected 1052 RBIs and scored 1246 runs.
