HOUSTON — Perhaps overshadowed by his conversion from shortstop to playing second base for the first time in his career, Elvis Andrus entered Friday nearing a milestone, having 1,998 hits entering the Sox’ game against the Astros. The 2,000 hit club includes 286 players.

It’s select company for Andrus, 34, who owned a career .270/.326/.371 hitting line and .697 OPS playing for the Rangers, Athletics and Sox. He has played in 145 or more games 12 times.
