Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Reaches 30-homer plateau
Rotowire
Guerrero went 3-for-4 with two solo home runs, an additional run scored and a walk Thursday against the Rangers.
Each of Guerrero's blasts went for over 400 feet, raising his season homer total to 30. The first of those homers snapped a 49 at-bat homer-less streak. It was the first multi-homer game of the season for Guerrero and the 19th time he's collected at least three hits in a game. The veteran first baseman stands just one RBI shy of his second 100-RBI season, while his .322 average is a career best and ranks second in the majors behind only Bobby Witt.

Guerrero went 3-for-5 with a double, one RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 13-8 loss to the Rangers.
Guerrero has hit safely in nine of his 12 games in September, but this was just his second multi-hit effort of the month. He had seven such games over the last 11 contests of August. The first baseman is slashing .322/.397/.545 with 28 home runs, 97 RBI, 94 runs scored and two stolen bases over 148 games this season, and he still has time to chase down his third 30-homer campaign.

Guerrero went 1-for-3 with a walk, two runs scored and an RBI in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Cardinals.
With his RBI single in the seventh inning, the 25-year-old Guerrero became the youngest Blue Jay ever to record 500 career RBI. He also reached that plateau in 806 career games, with only Carlos Delgado (714 games) getting there quicker in franchise history. Guerrero has slowed down a little in September, going nine straight games without recording multiple hits, but on the season he's still slashing .320/.394/.545 with 28 homers, 96 RBI and 92 runs.
