It is no secret to anyone that Miguel Cabrera has been one of the best hitters in baseball history; However, not everyone knows that the Venezuelan living legend also shone in moments of truth in MLB.

And it is that of the 507 home runs that the double MVP of the American League holds in the majors, 34 came in the ninth inning; a figure that is not exceeded by any other active player.

Even the Major League Baseball portal itself reported that Miguel Cabrera is ahead of Cincinnati Reds starter Joey Votto in the aforementioned statistics, owner of 33 tetrabatazos in the theoretical final chapter, together with Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Andrew McCutchen, who has 30, and the Dominican sluggers Carlos Santana (29), also of the buccaneer currency, and Nelson Cruz (29), representative of the San Diego Padres.

Said record is one more for “Miggy”, the last player to achieve the offensive Triple Crown (2012) and one of the very few humans to average at least .305 for life (.307 after Wednesday’s game), adding no less than 500 home runs and 3,000 hits (3,103).

Undoubtedly, the talent and charisma of Miguel Cabrera, who has only worn the uniforms of the Miami Marlins and Detroit Tigers in MLB, will be felt once the hooks hang at the end of this season.
