松井秀喜日米通算500 HR

2011/07/20，運動家作客老虎主場Comerica Park。

六上，松井秀喜從對方先發投手Duane Below (ML Debut)手中擊出本季第七發全壘打，也終於達成了美日合計500支全壘打的紀錄。哥吉拉成為第一位日米通算500本 (日:332 美:168)的選手 (MLB.com官網上有相關影片:Must C Classic: Matsui hits 500th combined homer)

"I guess you can say I'm happy to get it out of the way and, to add to that, winning the game just made it even better," Matsui said through translator Roger Kahlon.

松井透過翻譯Kahlon表示，我猜你會說我很開心能達成紀錄，而贏球更棒

"Five hundred home runs is quite a feat," manager Bob Melvin said. "I don't care if they're split in two different places. It's the Major Leagues in Japan, it's the Major Leagues here. Five hundred home runs is quite a tribute to an incredible player."

總教練Melvin表示500轟是個壯舉，他不在意紀錄由不同的地方所締造

賽前松井.216/.297/.331 6HR 40RBI，其中有5支全壘打自左投手中擊出。Geren時期，遇上對方以左投先發時會選擇讓松井off；Melvin時期，讓他每天出賽，將其棒次移回中心打線，守備方面偶爾與Willingham platoon左外野，也出現過nice play，Matsui近年飽受膝傷所苦，而Willingham近期有阿基里斯腱方面問題

上半季.209/.290/.327的三圍，相較於生涯上半季的.280/.360/.458來說，很明顯地澇賽；下半季開始有加溫趨勢 (前五場.421/.476/.632)，看能不能持續表現吧
