Matthew Stafford arrived in Detroit one year after Miguel Cabrera did, and though he left the city last year after being traded from the Lions to the Rams, the quarterback returned over the weekend to witness a huge accomplishment by the Tigers slugger.

On Saturday, Cabrera recorded his 3,000^th career hit, a single to the right side against the Rockies. He became just the seventh player in MLB history with 500 home runs and 3,000 hits, bolstering his Hall of Fame resume.
