With hits in five of his last six games until last Sunday, Miguel Cabrera left Dave Winfield behind and was only 22nd on the all-time list of the best hitters in the Major Leagues.
In front of Zac Gallen, right starter for the Rattlers. In the second turn that he consumed, as the second man for the Tigers, at the bottom of the fourth inning of the game on June 11, Cabrera singled down the center of the field.
The Bengalis fell 7-5 at their home in Comerica Park and the maracayero was left with 3,111 hits to his account. To climb to the 21st rung of the all-time list, he must add just 4 hits and will be next to Alex Rodríguez (3115).

For the first game of the three-day series that the Tigers are playing once morest the Atlanta Braves in Detroit since yesterday, Cabrera was not listed as part of the starting lineup.
In the last six games in which he has played, he is 8-for-18 with four doubles and two RBIs.
Of course, he will be ready in the cave to offer his contribution once morest the team of Ronald Acuña Jr. and Orlando Arcia. Throughout his career he has done very well once morest the Braves: in 95 games he has posted a .326/.392/.554 offensive line with 26 doubles, two triples, 18 homers and 65 RBIs.
Cabrera has moved up a couple of notches in the elite lifetime hitters so far this season.
On April 1, with his second uncatchable of the year, once morest Zach Flin, of the Tampa Rays, he left behind the Japanese Ichiro Suzuki and on Sunday he displaced Winfield.
In a short time he is going to take over the box that A-Rod occupies and he will start the final push of his brilliant career, let’s see how much more he can climb to be well placed in the Top-20, along with Tony Gwynn (3141), Robin Yount (3,142), Paul Waner (3,152), George Brett (3,154) and Adrian Beltré (3,166).
