Robinson José Canó Mercedes (Spanish pronunciation: [kaˈno]; born October 22, 1982), often shortened to Robbie Cano, is a Dominican-American professional baseball second baseman for the Seattle Mariners of Major League Baseball. He made his MLB debut with the New York Yankees in 2005 and played for them through 2013.
Canó is a seven-time All-Star (2006, 2010–2014, 2016) and five-time Silver Slugger Award winner (2006, 2010–2013). He won two Gold Glove Awards (2010, 2012) and has been named American League Player of the Month twice (September 2006, April 2010). In 2011, Canó won the Home Run Derby. He was a member of the Yankees' 2009 World Series championship team over the Philadelphia Phillies and also the Dominican Republic's 2013 World Baseball Classic championship team, for which he won the tournament's most valuable player award. His team's win made him and fellow WBC teammates Octavio Dotel and Santiago Casilla three of the four players to have won both a World Series and World Baseball Classic, joining Daisuke Matsuzaka and later joined by Koji Uehara and Munenori Kawasaki.
