The great Stan Musial got # 3,000 on this day in 1958. It happened at Wrigley Field. Musial came into the game as a pinch-hitter. He may be the only player to get # 3,000 as a pinchhitter.
Musial went into The Hall of Fame in 1969. He won 3 NL MVP's and retired with a .331 average, 3,630 hits, 475 HR & 1,961 RBI.
He was one of the greatest.
