Beltre is just one of 11 players in the history of baseball to have 3,000 hits and 450 home runs. Out of those 11, only four (Beltre, Willie Mays, Dave Winfield and Carl Yastrzemski) have at least five Gold Glove Awards. He is the only third baseman in the 3,000-400 club, and he has the most hits and RBI (1,707) by a third baseman ever; only Mike Schmidt and Eddie Matthews had more home runs.

Beltre accumulated 3,166 hits and hit 477 home runs in his 21-year career, spending 15 of those seasons with the Texas Rangers and Los Angeles Dodgers.

He never won an MVP, but he was a finalist twice and finished in the top 10 six times. In his age-37 season, Beltre won a Gold Glove, his fifth and final, while hitting .300 with an .879 OPS.
