Tigers’ Miguel Cabrera notches 600th career double to join exclusive club

Detroit News
Another milestone for Detroit Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera. Another exclusive club.

With his two-run double in the third inning off Astros lefty Framber Valdez, Cabrera became just the the third player in major-league history to collect 3,000 hits, 500 home runs and 600 doubles. He is part of a trio that includes St. Louis Cardinals slugger Albert Pujols and Hall of Famer Hank Aaron.

On April 22, Cabrera became the 33rd major leaguer to reach 3,000 hits, with a first-inning single against Colorado Rockies starter Antonio Senzatela. He also became just the seventh major-leaguer with 3,000 hits and 500 home runs, having reached the latter milestone last August with a blast against the Toronto Blue Jays.
