Manny inches closer

[NewsWhore]

Slugger Manny Ramirez took one step closer to joining the 500-homerun club after clubbing his eighth homerun of the season last night. The Dominican-born star hit a shot in his first at bat against the Minnesota Twins to give him 498 dingers for his career. Ramirez's homer wasn't enough for the great team from Boston as the BoSox lost 7-3. When Ramirez hits his 500th homerun he will join Sammy Sosa as the only Dominicans in the exclusive club.
