500 HRs...What's Next?

posted August 19, 1999; revised August 22, 1999

At Busch Stadium on August 3, 1999, Mark McGwire hit his 500th career home run.

In so doing, he became the first player ever to swat his 500th HR while wearing a Cardinals' uniform.

Click here to listen to the post-game press conference held by McGwire...during which time he addresses several issues, including aspects related to the totality of his baseball career.


 
   

 


...and a [small?!] part of the aftermath of Mac's 500 th homer can be seen high above the center-field scoreboard at Busch.

Is 600 homers unthinkable for Big Mac?

What's more likely? 600 Mac homers or a Cardinals NLC title in 2000?
