Tim Hudson Homers, Earns 200th Win 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed May 1, 2013 11:20 am

Atlanta Braves right-hander Tim Hudson helped himself on Tuesday night, hitting a home run in his 200th career victory.


"It was a fun game," Hudson said. "Obviously, it's kind of surreal. No one expects to hit a home run."


The homer was the third of Hudson's career and first since June 20, 2011 against Toronto.


Cleveland's Bob Lemon is the only other pitcher to hit a homer in his 200th win. Lemon's milestone came on Sept. 11, 1956.


Hudson, 37, became the third active pitcher with 200 wins, joining Andy Pettitte (248) and Roy Halladay (201).
