After the match, the club's president gave Bale a commemorative jersey. His 250 matches have come across six competitions: La Liga (170), Champions League (55), Copa del Rey (13), Club World Cup (6), Spanish Super Cup (3) and European Super Cup (3).
In his seventh season with the club, the Welshman has been involved in 162 wins and has scored 105 goals.
Real Madrid secured a commanding 3-1 win against Eibar at the Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano. Toni Kroos, Sergio Ramos and Marcelo Vieira scored one goal each to hand their side a win.
Real Madrid holds the second spot on the La Liga table with 59 points, just two points behind the top-placed club, Barcelona.
Meanwhile, despite victory over Eibar, Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos is looking for improvement saying that it wasn't a "wonderful performance".
"It's no surprise it wasn't a wonderful performance and we have things we can improve," the club's official website quoted Ramos as saying.
"Physically the team was fine, you can expect to play with the intensity we showed in the first 45 minutes for the full 90. We dropped off a bit and left more spaces, but we'll learn from it going into our 10 remaining games," he added.
