The first in MLB was Hank Aaron who got his 3000th base hit on May 17, 1970. He had 569 career home runs when he got his 3000th.

Willie Mays quickly followed suit, getting his 3000th base hit on July 18, 1970. He had 620 home runs when he got his 3000th.

Through the 2009 season, Eddie Murray and Rafael Palmeiro are the only two players besides Aaron and Mays to be in the 500 HR/3000 hit club.
