This Day In New York Yankees History 7/15 Dan Uggla Makes Three Errors In An All Star Game
The last time the New York Yankees hosted an All Star Game was in 2008 when we said goodbye to Yankee Stadium II. The House that Ruth Built was torn down at the end of the season but not before the Yankees had one more All Star Game and one last hoorah. In true Yankee Stadium fashion history was made on this day as Dan Uggla became the first player in the history of the All Star Game to make three errors in a game.
The Marlins second baseman had two errors in the 10th inning and one in the 13th inning while helping the American League win the game 4-3 in 15 innings. Uggla wasn't any better at the plate as he wen't 0-4 with three strikeouts while grounding into a double play with runners on first and third in the 10th inning for his fourth at bat.
I believe Uggla was probably the first out of Yankee Stadium that night and it would suit him just fine if he never went back. Speaking of Dan Uggla...
