San Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado led off the fourth inning of Monday night’s game against the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks with a single for his 2,000th career hit.

Machado slashed an 0-1 knuckle-curve from Zac Gallen into the hole between third and short. Geraldo Perdomo dove to his right but the ball deflected off his glove into short left field as Machado jogged to first while the crowd roared.

It was the second hit of the game for Machado, who singled to left in the first. Machado, who became the 298th player in MLB history to reach 2,000 hits, is batting .292 for the year and will start the All-Star Game for the National League.

Machado has spent the bulk of his career with the Baltimore Orioles (2012-18) and Padres (2019-25), with a brief stint as a Los Angeles Dodgers in the second half of 2018.

At the time of the hit, Arizona led San Diego 2-1.
