Shorting Dan Uggla on a record

Yesterday I mentioned the Dan Uggla set a Marlins record for consecutive 30 home run seasons, which he did.  But it turns out the record was also a major league record for a second basemen.

With his 30th home run Tuesday, Uggla became the first player in major league history to hit at least 30 home runs in three consecutive seasons while playing at least 100 games at second base.

Uggla, Ryne Sandberg, Alfonso Soriano and Chase Utley were the only players to accomplish the feat in two consecutive seasons entering this year.
