Kazuo Matsui beats out an infield single in Milwaukee for his 2,000th career hit

On August 15Ā , 2009 ā€” Kazuo Matsui beats out an infield single in Milwaukee for his 2,000th career hit combined from his career as a star shortstop in the Japanese majors as well as his six years in the National League. Play is stopped as Japanese officials recognize Matsuiā€™s automatic induction into Japanā€™s Meikyukai, similar to our Hall of Fame. The event gets live television coverage back in his homeland. The Astros, however, fall in a 6-2 defeat.
