Alex Rodriguez, Gary Sheffield share Bank of America Presents the American
League Player of the Week honors
Alex Rodriguez of the New York Yankees and his former teammate, Gary
Sheffield of the Detroit Tigers, have been named the Bank of America Presents
the American League Co-Players of the Week for the period of June 4-10, 2007.
Bank of America, the Official Bank of Major League Baseball, is the
presenting sponsor of the American League and National League Player of the
Week Awards, which reflect the company's long-standing tradition of
recognizing achievements that inspire us all to seize opportunities to
perform at our very best.
In seven games, Rodriguez posted a .400 batting average (10-25) with a .960
slugging percentage and a .515 on-base percentage. The third baseman hit four
home runs and two doubles while adding 16 RBI and seven runs scored. Alex
tallied five multi-RBI game performances and connected for two home runs in
yesterday's Interleague game versus the Pittsburgh Pirates. Rodriguez is
batting .304 with a Major League-best 24 home runs and 63 RBI this season.
This marks the second time Rodriguez has earned the A.L. honors this year and
the 12th of his career. Rodriguez was also a co-winner (with Vladimir
Guerrero of the Angels) for the opening week of the 2007 season, meaning that
he and Florida's Miguel Cabrera have won the honors in the same week twice so
far in 2007.
Sheffield finished the week batting .417 (10-24) with a 1.000 slugging
percentage. The designated hitter added a triple, four home runs and 11 RBI
in six games played. The right-handed slugger put together three multi-RBI
performances, including a five-RBI effort at Texas on June 6th. Sheffield is
currently hitting .281 with 17 home runs (third in the A.L.) and 43 RBI (10th
in the A.L.) for the season. This is the 12th overall weekly award of his
career.
Players also receiving consideration were Yankees outfielder Bobby Abreu
(.500, 3 2B, 1 3B, 1 HR, 9 RBI), Indians pitcher C.C. Sabathia (1-0, 0.00
ERA, 18.0 IP, 14 SO), and Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling (1-0, 0.00 ERA, 9.0
IP, 1 H).
Tourneau, the world's largest watch store, will supply Alex Rodriguez and
Gary Sheffield with a luxury Swiss Tourneau timepiece, suitably engraved, in
recognition of their achievement as co-players of the week.
