 | Edmonton's Collins III Reaches 2000 Hits Wednesday, July 25th, 2046 Steven Collins III has gone through many bats during his playing career. None of them means as much to him as the one he used to crack career hit number 2000 at John Ducey Park yesterday. The 29-year-old Jackrabbits third baseman told reporters after the game, "I plan to keep this bat at home in my own private Hall of Fame." It was a happy day for Collins III from the standpoint of the 2000-hit milestone, but a little disappointing, too. Despite his achievement, Edmonton dropped the contest to the Mexico City Aztecs 7-1. For the day Collins III finished the day with 2 hits in 4 at-bats. In his 1508-game career Collins III is batting .314 with 2000 hits, 186 home runs, 1127 runs scored and 847 RBIs.
