Romo Gets Number 3000
Tuesday, June 14th, 2067
Tampa Bay's Leo Romo got the standing ovation -- but the Boston Red Sox got the win.
It was a special day for him at Fenway Park. A day when Romo notched hit #3000 of his career. The fans went wild when he did. Even the Red Sox fans applauded.
The Rays second baseman went 2-for-4 in a losing cause as Boston spoiled the party with the 9-8 victory.
In the postgame interview, a downhearted Romo told the media, "We lost -- It's not about individual accomplishments -- we lost."
When pressed further, he admitted his pride in reaching the 3000-hit mark, "A lot of great players never get there. I'm proud, but I would be happier if we had won."
Career-to-date Romo has rung up a .276 average, played in 2867 games and collected 414 doubles, 44 triples and 523 home runs.
