"He (Steve Finley) insists that he doesn't do anything different. For whatever reason, the career numbers would bear out that he struggles very early in the season. The career numbers would also bear out that if you're patient, you stick with him. He'll figure it out and he'll put up the numbers you expect out of him by the end of the season." - Manager Bob Brenly

Steve Finley Stats by Baseball Almanac

Steve Finley hit the three-hundredth home run of his career on June 14, 2006 . The sixth lead-off homer of his career came off a Claudio Vargas 2-2 pitch that sailed over the right field wall in Chase Field. Finley already had already collected 316 career stolen bases on his online baseball card, making him the sixth member of the elite 300 Home Runs / 300 Stolen Bases Club, joining Barry Bonds , Bobby Bonds , Andre Dawson , Willie Mays , and Reggie Sanders ! Since Finley, only two additional players have made it to the 300-300 Club — Carlos Beltran & Alex Rodriguez !
