In the clubhouse, the Emeralds first baseman 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?"

In his career Bacon is hitting .321 with 1752 hits, 300 home runs, 982 runs scored and 1026 RBIs.
