Rosales Reaches 2000 Thursday, July 7th , 2016 Homer's Jorge Rosales got the standing ovation -- but the Minneapolis Millers got the win. It was a special day for him at Nicollet Park. A day when Rosales notched hit #2000 of his career. The fans went wild when he did. Even the Millers fans applauded. The Yetis third baseman went 2-for-4 in a losing cause as Minneapolis spoiled the party with the 10-9 victory. In the postgame interview, a downhearted Rosales told the media, "We lost -- It's not about individual accomplishments -- we lost." When pressed further, he admitted his pride in reaching the 2000-hit mark, "A lot of great players never get there. I'm proud, but I would be happier if we had won." During his career, Rosales has notched 2001 hits and a .279 average with 274 home runs and 1049 RBIs. View Boxscore View Game Log Watch Highlights |
