PINSTRIPE POINTS
Soriano Joins 30-30 Club

On Saturday, August 17th, New York Yankee Alfonso Soriano homered to become the first second baseman in Major League history to join the exclusive "30-30 Club." Soriano, 24, already has stolen 34 bases this season, the other category on which the club is based. Soriano joins Bobby Bonds as the only Yankee players to reach the 30-30 plateau, while also tying the team record for home runs by a second baseman (Joe Gordon, 1940).
Giambi - 2002 HR Derby Champ!

On Monday, July 8th, 2002, New York Yankee Jason Giambi, defeated the league's best sluggers to become the 2002 Home Run Derby Champion at the All-Star festivities. With 11 home runs in the first round, Giambi advanced as the field of eight was cut in half. In the second round, Giambi managed to capture a sudden death victory against Chicago White Sox first baseman Paul Konerko. In the finals, Giambi cruised past Sammy Sosa by a score of 7-1 in front of a sold out Miller Park in Milwaukee. This was the first Home Run Derby winner for the Yankees since Tino Martinez in 1997.
Yankee All-Stars

The Yankees sent six players to the All-Star Game on July 9th. Starting for the American League team was Jorge Posada at catcher, Jason Giambi at first base, and Alfonso Soriano at second. All three have been major contributers to the team's success and earned their spots on the starting roster. The team also sent shortstop Derek Jeter, third baseman Robin Ventura, and the team's closing pitcher, Mariano Rivera. The game ended in a 7-7 tie when the league commissioner decided to end the game after 11 innings.
