Biography Timeline
Berry was named the 2012 Detroit Tigers Rookie of the Year by the Detroit Sports Broadcasters Association. He led the major leagues in stolen base percentage with a 100% success rate (21 for 21 in the regular season and two for two in the playoffs), and he also finished 10th in the American League in triples, with six. The 21 stolen bases set an American League record for most stolen bases in a season without a single caught stealing, surpassing the previous record of 20 set by Paul Molitor in 1994.
Berry played one season of baseball at Grossmont Junior College before moving on to San Diego State University (SDSU). Berry’s head coach at SDSU was former major leaguer and Baseball Hall of Fame member Tony Gwynn. He was named to the All-Mountain West Conference first team in 2005 and the second team in 2006.
