2000th Hit for Kinsler Wednesday, April 24th, 2019 The Seattle 4-3 loss to San Diego wasn't all bad. Something good came out it, at least for Ian Kinsler. As a consolation prize he got the 2000th hit of his career. The veteran Mariners second baseman went 2-for-5 in the game and added his name to the coveted 2000-hit club. He was given a five-minute ovation by the crowd, which included his wife and family and quite a few former Mariners teammates. "I could have scripted it better," Kinsler commented to the press after the game, "a win would have made it a lot more enjoyable. But what the hey... hit #2000 ain't so bad." Lifetime Kinsler is hitting .272 with 2001 hits, 416 doubles, 44 triples and 251 home runs. He has scored 1236 runs and driven in 914. View Boxscore View Game Log |
