Blake Ballard Gets Hit Number 2000
Blake Ballard was bubbling over with joy, celebrating his 2000th hit in the Texas 6-2 victory over the Angels at Globe Life Park in Arlington.

"I learned what hard work, focus, dedication, and opportunity can do. This is how it pays off."

The 37-year-old right fielder achieved that milestone with 2 hits in 4 at-bats to join the exclusive 2000-hit club.

His manager said, "Blake plays the same every day and every inning -- with all his heart. That's why he's such a special player."

In his 2012-game career Ballard is hitting .269 with 2000 hits, 317 doubles, 68 triples and 474 home runs. He has scored 1403 runs and driven in 1308.
