Carter Reaches 2000 Milestone Friday, September 7th , 1990 Gary Carter has gone through many bats during his playing career. None of them means as much to him as the one he used to crack career hit number 2000 at Arroyo Seco Stadium yesterday. The 35-year-old Maroons catcher told reporters after the game, "I plan to keep this bat at home in my own private Hall of Fame." It was a happy day for Carter from the standpoint of the 2000-hit milestone, but a little disappointing, too. Despite his achievement, St. Louis dropped the contest to the Los Angeles Outlaws 3-2. For the day Carter finished the day with 2 hits in 3 at-bats. Over his career Carter is batting .261 with 313 doubles, 24 triples, 303 home runs, 1128 RBIs and scored 990 runs in 2199 games.
