Craig Biggio picked up hit #3000 today with an RBI single against Aaron Cook of the Rockies in the 7th inning tonight at Minute Maid Park. Biggio was thrown out at second by Willie Tavares Taveras Colorado's center fielder trying to stretch it into a double.
I know Brett was picked off. Some people were angry at the Angels pitcher, Tim Fortugno I believe, for doing it, but I don't see why Brett should have been given any leeway.
I do not know if any player was out trying to stretch on hit #3000, but I would be inclined to say no. The vast majority of these hits are singles.
Wade Boggs hit a homer and Paul Molitor hit a triple.
