Eddie Murray the second switch hitter to collect 3,000 hits

ByThis Day in Baseball

On June 30, 1995, Cleveland’s Eddie Murray singles in the 6th inning against Minnesota’s Mike Trombley for his 3,000th career hit, making him just the 20th player to reach the mark. The visiting Indians beat the Twins, 4 – 1. Murray becomes only the second switch-hitter-after all-time leader Pete Rose-to reach the milestone.
