Manny Machado Collects Hit No. 2,000 in Loss
Manny Machado went 3-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-3 home loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. He added two singles. The fantasy stalwart reached on singles in the bottom of the first and fourth frames, though the latter was no ordinary base knock. It was Machado's 2,000th career hit, making him the seventeenth player in MLB history to accrue 2,000 hits and 350 home runs before the age of 33. He also blasted homer No. 15 on the season, in the bottom of the eighth. The 33-year-old has been stellar thus far, slashing a strong .293/.354/.484, and appearing in each of the Friars' 90 games.
