He wants to be behind the plate. He thrives on it.” The only thing that might stop Rodriguez’s streak is a position change. Wear and tear behind the plate has led some good-hitting catchers, like Bench, to switch positions to extend their careers. Rodriguez joined Atlanta right-hander Greg Maddux and Cleveland second baseman Roberto Alomar as Gold Glove record-setters. Maddux extended his National League record for pitchers by winning his 12th-straight Gold Glove. He trails only Jim Kaat, who won the award 16 times. Alomar passed former Chicago Cubs second baseman Ryne Sandberg with his 10th Gold Glove, the most for that position. He was joined by his Cleveland double-play partner shortstop Omar Vizquel, who won for the ninth-straight season. Seattle’s Ichiro Suzuki and Mike Cameron earned two of the three American League outfield spots. Suzuki made only one error in his first major league season after coming over from Japan. Torii Hunter of the Minnesota Twins filled out the AL outfield. Mike Mussina, in his first season with the New York Yankees, again was chosen as the top pitcher in the American League. Mussina won four straight years (1996-99) before Notebook Aggie All-American Continued from Page 7 each game and has started since then. Farmer also owns A&M’s longest play from scrimmage, scoring a touchdown on a 65- yard game-clinching run against Iowa State on Oct. 27. Farmer also ran for 133 yards that day, another season high for A&M. If Farmer finishes the sea son on top of the Aggie rush ing list, it would be the first time in A&M history that a freshman has led the team in rushing in consecutive years. Redshirt freshman Richard Whitaker led A&M in the 2000 season with 455 yards.
