Mr. 3000 is a 2004 movie starring Bernie Mac and Angela Bassett. The story follows Stan Ross (Bernie Mac) who was a Milwaukee Brewers baseball star with 3,000 hits that earned him the nickname "Mr. 3000." However, years later, it was discovered that, due to a clerical error, he was three hits short, so Ross attempts to return to the game at the age of 47 to get three more hits and secure his place in the record books.
Had Stan Ross actually played in Major League Baseball and had 2,999 hits, he would have been 26th all-time in the Major Leagues between Roberto Clemente who had exactly 3,000 hits and Sam Rice with 2,987.
