This is Beltre’s 20th season in the Big Leagues, and at 38 he is the ninth youngest player to garner 3,000 hits and the 31st player to accomplish the honor.
You don’t collect 3,000 hits without using all fields. #Beltre3K pic.twitter.com/6LanlRkxPi

When you see Adrian out and about congratulate him…just don’t touch his head.
He might not like it, but Adrián Beltré might get a few head pats after hit 3,000. pic.twitter.com/hDU6lNlN8G
