There was an article back in the early 80s when Yaz got his 3000 hit or 400th HR to become a 3000 / 400 guy - a milestone missed by one by Kaline. Kaline is quoted that with his hurt shoulder, there was no way he could have hit another one out. I don't remember if he acknowledged he knew that he was at 399, but it sure sounded that way. I gotta find that interview.
