You probably don't see this too often, since it happens rarely...

Adrian Baker just got his 2000th hit. Yea for him! News outlets must have been so excited that they gave him too much credit. Observe:

Saturday 4/9/2011: Adrian Baker ropes 2000th career hit
MAUI - Maui's rightfielder Adrian Baker was in good mood after the game against Pittsburgh, and he had every reason as he made some history while collecting his 2000th career hit. His hit in the 1st inning was a grand slam off Tobias Barboza. His best year so far was 2004 where he hit .356 with 47 homeruns and 117 RBI. 'I guess I'll celebrate a bit today. But the most important thing is winning, and my whole career I gave everything I could to help my team.'

Now let's look at what really happened...

Uh oh...looks like it was only a 3 run homer.

This is a small bug, but I thought I'd throw it out there.
