There’s a new member of one of Major League Baseball’s most exclusive clubs. Detroit Tigers designated hitter Miguel Cabrera joined the 3,000 hits/500 home runs club today with a first inning single against the Colorado Rockies.
He is the 33rd player in MLB history to get 3,000 hits, virtually ensuring a ticket to the baseball Hall of Fame.
Cabrera’s ground ball single to right field came against fellow Venezuelan Antonio Senzatela and set off a celebration around the Tigers’ Comerica Park. The crowd gave him a standing ovation and chanted his name, as fireworks erupted and teammates ran out to hug him.
He later scored that same inning on a three-run home run by rookie Spencer Torkelson, who has largely taken over first base duties as the older Cabrera shifted to Dh.
At the end of the inning, the scoreboard flashed, “Congratulations Miggy,” as Cabrera emerged from the dugout to wave to fans.
