Shane Victorino made history in 2009 as the first Hawaiian to become an All-Star and it was a well earned honor for the then Philadelphia Phillie.  Victorino, also known as “The Flyin’ Hawaiian” was an exciting player who would use his speed to twice lead the NL in Triples (2009 & 2011) and would have four seasons with 25 Stolen Bases.  He was a two-time All-Star and a three time Gold Glove but his career highlight had to be winning the World Series with Philadelphia in 2008.

He would later win a second World Series ring with the Boston Red Sox in 2013.

As a Phillie, Victorino batted .279 with 998 Hits.
