Adrian Beltre's 3,000th Hit Part VI: The Aftermath

The passage of time is an unrelenting thing. It has been almost 10 years since I sat in Nationals Park on a rainy day in Washington DC to watch Randy Johnson win his 300th game. And of course it has been a year since I sat in the brutally hot Texas sun in Arlington, Texas to watch Adrian Beltre get his 3,000th hit. And like what I did with the Randy Johnson milestone, I will take this opportunity to take a look back at what had happened in the past year, new perspectives of the events of July 30, 2017 now that a year has passed, and the future of the 3,000 hit milestone.
