Pickoff gives Rogers all-time lead
Published 5/10/2008 by Jason Beck at Major League Baseball News
When Kenny Rogers caught the Yankees' Wilson Betemit straying too far off of first base on Friday, it marked the 92nd pickoff of his career, pushing him past Mark Langston for the all-time Major League lead. It's a relatively recent record, since the stat wasn't tracked until 1974, but it's a record that Rogers holds over some prominent left-handed company.
