Roberto Alomar is a former MLB second baseman who played from 1988-2004 with the San Diego Padres (1988-1990), Toronto Blue Jays (1991-1995), Baltimore Orioles (1996-1998), Cleveland Indians (1991-2001), New York Mets (2002-2003), Chicago White Sox (2003, 2004) and Arizona Diamondbacks (2004). Alomar was named an All-Star in 12 consecutive seasons between 1990 and 2001. In 2011, he became a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame, at the time becoming just the third Puerto Rican to be inducted along with Orlando Cepeda and Roberto Clemente (Edgar Martinez and Ivan Rodriguez have also since been inducted). Alomar’s jersey #12 was retired by the Blue Jays in 2011 – the first player in franchise history to be so honored - and he is a member of both the Blue Jays Level of Excellence and Orioles Hall of Fame.
Known for his skills on both sides of the ball, he captured four Silver Slugger Awards during his career (1992, 1996, 1999, 2000) along with 10 Gold Glove Awards (1991-1996, 1998-2001). At the time of his retirement, Alomar was ranked near the top all-time in numerous offensive categories for second basemen, including games played (3rd), stolen bases (5th), plate appearances (6th) and assists and doubles (7th). In 1992, Alomar hit .310 with eight homers and 76 RBI while earning ALCS MVP honors and helping the Blue Jays to a World Series title. Alomar was solid again in 1993, hitting .326 with 17 homers and 93 RBI as the Blue Jays went on to win their second straight World Series. In both of Toronto’s championship seasons, Alomar placed sixth in A.L. MVP voting. For the 1999 campaign, he set career-highs in home runs (24) and RBI (120) while leading the American League in runs scored with 138. That season, he finished third in the A.L. MVP voting. Alomar was born into a baseball family on February 5, 1998 in Ponce, Puerto Rico. His father is Sandy Alomar Sr. and older brother is Sandy Alomar Jr., both of whom enjoyed successful major league careers.
