He has 41 doubles, 11 triples and 19 home runs this season, leaving him one homer short of joining Milwaukee's Robin Yount (1982, 1984) and Boston's Nomar Garciaparra (1997) as the only shortstops in major league history with a 40-10-20 season. Drew would be the first in the NL.

SS Stephen Drew became the fifth shortstop in NL history with 40 doubles, 10 triples and 10 home runs in a season when he hit a first-inning double. Drew later was called back to home plate after heading to first on what was ball three but quickly redeemed himself when he hit the next pitch for a two-out, two-run ninth-inning homer in Arizona's 5-3 win.

SS Stephen Drew hit for the third cycle in team history, the first at home, while also tying a team record with five hits. Hitting leadoff, Drew singled to left in the first, tripled to right-center in the third, homered to right in the fifth, hit a ground-rule double to left in the seventh and doubled down the right-field line in the eighth. Luis Gonzalez (2000, in Houston) and Greg Colbrunn (2002, in San Diego) are the other Diamondbacks to hit for the cycle.

SS Stephen Drew joined Robin Yount and Nomar Garciaparra as the only shortstops in major league history with at least 40 doubles, 10 triples and 20 home runs in the same season when he hit his 20th homer in the Diamondbacks' 4-2 victory over St. Louis at Busch Stadium. Yount did it twice with Milwaukee, in 1980 and 1982, when the Brewers were in the American League, and Garciaparra did it with Boston in 1999. So that means Drew is the first player in NL history to accomplish the feat.
