MILESTONE TRACKER – 3,000 HIT CLUB
There is currently only 1 player to get at least 3,000 hits and that is Eddie Murray. He finished his career with 3,161 hits, over 200 hits clear of 2nd all-time, and retired after the 1997 season.
For current players there are 2 tied for 6th all-time going into this week at 2,754, Tony Gwynn & Cal Ripken.
Unfortunately, both are in the twilight of their careers and don’t look like they will get there. Who will be the next player to reach this rare earth?
