Sporty Spotlight: 2011 Home Run Derby


Going, Going….Gone!!!!
Congratulations to Yankees’ second baseman Robinson Cano for capturing first place in the 2011 Home Run Derby in Phoenix, Arizona Monday night. Cano captured the title over Red Sox first baseman Adrian Gonzalez, which makes the win even sweeter! Cano choose his father as pitcher ending the night with 32 home runs.  Cano is the third Yankee to win the Derby, joining the ranks of Tino Martinez (1997) and Jason Giambi (2002). Way to go Cano!!!!
