Young Collects Hit Number 2000
For Dmitri Young, it was a red-letter day. The Chicago Cubs right fielder slapped his 2000th career hit. That his team defeated the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-4, made it even sweeter.

His manager paid tribute to Young after the game: "I've followed Dmitri since he came into the league," he said. "Fine ballplayer. Fine work ethic. I'm not surprised by what he's achieved."

The 35-year-old Young finished the day with 2 hits in 4 at-bats.

Career-to-date Young is hitting .284 with a total of 243 home runs.
