Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira hit the 300th home run of his major league career on Thursday afternoon against the Brewers. The milestone came in a 5-0 victory. His 300 home runs are the most by a switch-hitter through his first nine Major League seasons. "It's not a big milestone," Teixeira said. "I'm not trying to downplay it, but it's not 500 or 600 or anything like that. For me, I just try to go up there and swing the bat hard and try to hit something." Teixeira was able to retrieve the ball from the fan who caught it, promising the fan a trip to batting practice, along with a signed ball and bat. "I have each one of 100, 200, 300," Teixeira said. "Those are always fun to keep in my office and break them out every now and then."
