On
Tuesday in Philadelphia Juan Career accomplished something fantastic
in his career. Pierre with a double collected his 2,215 hit passing
Joe Dimaggio for 175th on the all-time hits list. Pierre
is the classic example of maximizing your potential in the big
leagues. He shows up early everyday and takes his craft incredibly
serious.
Passing
a player like Joe Dimaggio just goes to show you great of a career
Pierre has had. He will never be looked at like Dimaggio but his
accolades speak for itself.
- 2003 World Series Champion
- 3 Time Stolen Base Champion
- 4 200 Hit Seasons
- 613 Career Stolen Bases
- 2,215 Hits
- 2-Time hits leader
- 4-Time leader In Sacrifice Hits
- 1,074 Runs Scored
- Top 10 MVP Finish In 2003
Pierre
has quietly put together quite the Career and had he not had a few
down years with the Dodgers his hit total would actually be higher
but regardless of what has happened Juan Pierre's accomplishment in
Philadelphia is still huge and it couldn't have happened to a better
guy. Congrats to Juan Pierre on moving past Joe Dimaggio on the hits
list.
