But McGwire's .197 average takes the honor. Well, I really tried not to give this to an NL pitcher. I really wanted to avoid the clean sweep. But I couldn't ignore Scott Elarton 's numbers, and he gets it over Dave Burba of the Indians. His 51-point lead in average gets him the nod over Jim Thome 's 49 home runs, but it's close.
Boone owners hope it's the start of a trend.
If anyone's worth the money, this is the guy. A monster at the plate who's only getting better. Was hitting .250 at the break as well, and you'd like to see him boost that average. Helps in every category. The best import since Nintendo came out with Tecmo Bowl.
