I also remember reading about one day he climbed a tree so high up in his neighborhood that someone ran to his mother's house to tell her. When she got to the tree, Biggio was all the way up. No one knew how he was able to climb so high. Today we all know - athletic gifts. </p> http://houstonist.com/2007/10/01/biggio_complete.php#comment-1210332 http://houstonist.com/2007/10/01/biggio_complete.php#comment-1210332 Comments Tue, 02 Oct 2007 08:44:48 -0600 <p>SOOOO many memories of my favorite Astro... but a recent one that really stands out was how he got his 3,000 hit. He was trying to stretch a single into a double - grit, determination, sacrificing himself for the team... just a tremendous example of a great individual who constantly focused on team!</p>
