Cleveland Indians' Choo Posts 20/20 Season

Cleveland Indians' outfielder Choo Shin-soo has become the first Asian player in Major League Baseball to hit 20 home runs and steal 20 bases in a single season.

The 27-year-old reached the milestone when he belted a two-run homer against the Boston Red Sox on Saturday.

Choo led the Indians this year in games played, home runs, RBIs and stolen bases.

He racked up 175 hits in 583 at-bats for a batting average of .300 in 156 games.

His 20 homers were the most by any Cleveland player, narrowly beating out Grady Sizemore’s 18 jacks.

He's the 12th Major League player and the fourth American League player to join the 20/20 club this year.
