Although he never played a sport professionally as Boomer did, Craig was able to relate to how Robinson Cano felt following his Home Run Derby triumph - or at least to a dream the Yankees' second baseman referred to.
Robinson Cano outslugged Adrian Gonzalez to win the All-Star Home Run Derby that turned into a Yankees-Red Sox showdown, even through his Boston rival made the biggest splash at Chase Field.
