Detroit Tigers superstar Miguel Cabrera recorded his 3000th career hit on Saturday and the entire baseball world took notice.
"He made me the player I am ... he's like a brother to me." "He got here in 2008, I got here in 2009 and being able to watch him do his thing from a far for so many years was special," Stafford said. "But really, he came up and was a huge lift and spark for us in '03 and helped us win the World Series. But prior to the game, he admitted the two shared a moment that had a bit more anxiety. Among Venezuelans, there's no doubt he's the greatest. "Miggy has been an incredible influence in my career on and off the field, and this was a big moment for him." Among right-handed hitters, many believe the same. And those who were involved in it know what it means. Just ask the pitchers he faced When he was in the major leagues for the first time, I was 8 years old. "We just witnessed history," said Tigers manager A.J. Hinch after the game. "(Miggy) said, 'I couldn't sleep last night,' and I was like, 'Me either, so let's knock that out early ... you better hit one'."
It's safe to say the entirety of the Detroit Tigers fanbase is proud of Miguel Cabrera for becoming one of only dozens in the league to reach 3000 hits ...
“I was so nervous and I wanted to do it in front of the hometown, Detroit. I wanted to do it in front of these fans.” We scored a lot of runs, we got a lot of hits, we got the win. This is the latest of many milestones for Cabrera, a future Hall of Famer who will now set his sights on climbing the all-time hit leaderboard. “We showed up today too. “It was a very emotional moment for me and my family, to be honest with you guys. DETROIT – It’s safe to say the entirety of the Detroit Tigers fanbase is proud of Miguel Cabrera for becoming one of only dozens in the league to reach 3,000 hits during a home game Saturday.
Phillies slugger Nick Castellanos posted a funny throwback photo on his Instagram to congratulate former Tigers teammate Miguel Cabrera on his 3000th hit.
But a few years later, Dombrowski managed to convince his former team to part with the young star. After spending the first five seasons of his career with the then-Florida Marlins, they traded Cabrera to the Tigers ahead of the 2008 season, and he’s been in Detroit ever since. When it ended in early March, Dombrowski convinced Phillies managing partner John Middleton to exceed the luxury tax for the first time in franchise history in order to ink Castellanos to a five-year deal.
The Detroit Tigers designated hitter became the 33rd player in the league to reach the milestone. Rockies shortstop José Iglesias ran over to hug his former ...

Mike Trout, Marcus Stroman and other players paid tribute to Miguel Cabrera on Twitter after the Detroit Tigers legend recorded his 3000th career hit.
So congrats Miggy, you truly are a legend.— Trevor "IamTrevorMay" May (@IamTrevorMay) April 23, 2022 Just having a guy, fresh off a triple crown, tell you one of your pitches plays is so big for a rookie, and definitely helped me build confidence as a big leaguer. Huge congrats to— Brent Suter (@bruter24) @MiguelCabreraon 3k hits!! One of the greatest teammates and smartest hitters I've ever met. One of the best to ever do it! In addition to those laurels, Cabrera has won seven Silver Sluggers and helped lead the Marlins to the 2003 World Series title.
DETROIT -- Of course Miguel Cabrera's 3000th career hit went to right field. It's how he got here. “True story, we were on the \[team\] plane, ...
I’m just so happy for him and his family and the country of Venezuela.”","type":"markdown","__typename":"Markdown"},"$ROOT_QUERY.getForgeContentBySlug({\"locale\":\"en-us\",\"slug\":\"miguel-cabrera-records-3-000th-hit\",\"type\":\"story\"}).parts.24":{"contentDate":"2022-04-23T21:43:26.73Z","description":"Miguel

But Cabrera didn't get a chance to because Yankees manager Aaron Boone intentionally walked him to the dismay of many Tigers fans. Cabrera was a sure-fire Hall of Famer before Saturday but his 3,000th hit welcomed him into an even more exclusive club in baseball. Cabrera, who batted third, hit a single to right field on his very first at-bat to get the celebration started early.
There is a new member of baseball's hallowed 3,000-hit club. Saturday against the Colorado Rockies, Detroit Tigers designated hitter Miguel Cabrera slapped ...
Cabrera, as a result, is just the seventh member of the 3,000-hit club to have also homered 500 or more times, joining Henry Aaron, Alex Rodriguez, Albert Pujols, Willie Mays, Rafael Palmeiro, and Eddie Murray. Cabrera spent five years with the Marlins in total, receiving Most Valuable Player Award consideration in each of them. Cabrera, needless to say, will one day join Carew and Clemente (and Beltré and Pujols) in Cooperstown. New York trailed Thursday's game 1-0 at the time and the Tigers had runners on second and third with two outs in the eighth inning. The move gave the Yankees the left-on-left matchup against Austin Meadows. Strategically, it was a sensible move, though it did backfire when Meadows doubled in two runs. He is the 33rd member of Major League Baseball's 3,000-hit club.
Detroit Tigers star Miguel Cabrera recorded the 3000th hit of his major league career on Saturday at home against the Colorado Rockies.
He announced his presence to the whole baseball world that October. That year, he won his first of two straight MVP awards and helped Detroit reach the World Series, during a stretch that included four straight division championships. He went 0 for 3 Thursday and was intentionally walked his final time up against the Yankees, drawing loud boos and chants from Detroit fans. The Tigers, though, never won it all with their superstar. Pujols was the previous player to reach 3,000 hits, doing it in 2018. He added a two-run single in the sixth, exited for a pinch-runner and drew another huge cheer. Moments later, Cabrera went behind home plate to embrace his mother, wife, son and daughter on the field. All these years later, stamping his name onto the 3,000-hit list had a nice ring, too. The Tigers went on to win 13-0. You know, he's an all-timer. Mike Trout (30) was at 1,428. Cabrera soon returned to first base, but didn't stay there long.

He announced his presence to the whole baseball world that October. That year, he won his first of two straight MVP awards and helped Detroit reach the World Series, during a stretch that included four straight division championships. The Tigers, though, never won it all with their superstar. He went 0 for 3 Thursday and was intentionally walked his final time up against the Yankees, drawing loud boos and chants from Detroit fans. Pujols was the previous player to reach 3,000 hits, doing it in 2018. Moments later, Cabrera went behind home plate to embrace his mother, wife, son and daughter on the field. Rockies shortstop José Iglesias, who played with Cabrera on the Tigers, came over to give his former teammate a big hug. He’s in that, probably inner circle, of even the Hall of Fame. It’s been a special career,” Boone said. All these years later, stamping his name onto the 3,000-hit list had a nice ring, too. He’s done it, you know, in bigger ballparks his entire career, between Florida and here also. Cabrera soon returned to first base, but didn't stay there long. Mike Trout (30) was at 1,428.
On June 20, 2003, a 20-year-old left fielder named Miguel Cabrera \-\- four years removed from signing out of Venezuela -- made his Major League debut.
With that said, Cabrera does have at least one hit in each lineup slot, including exactly one in the leadoff spot (a pinch-hit single last July 7). • Cabrera obviously authored a number of fantastic seasons on his way to 3,000 hits, but one that clearly stands out is 2012, when he hit .330 with 44 homers, 139 RBIs, the first of back-to-back American League MVP Awards and the first Triple Crown in either league since 1967. • Saturday marked the 1,852nd different game in which Cabrera has recorded a hit. • Cabrera only recorded one 200-hit season on his way to 3,000 but was extremely consistent for a long period of time. • Cabrera’s first 842 hits came with the Marlins, where he started his career. • Cabrera's 3,000 hits have come in 9,665 at-bats, resulting in a .310 career batting average that is the best among active players. Cabrera even went on to steal second base right after, one of his 39 career stolen bases. Among active Venezuelan players, Oakland’s Elvis Andrus (1,875 hits entering Saturday) is next on the list.

McKeon never altered the fundamental rules of baseball, of course, but he sure was right about Cabrera.

Cabrera went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts Thursday, coming closest to a hit in his first at-bat, a high fly to left field in the first inning.
