		<description><![CDATA[A year ago, Carl Crawford was stuck on the disabled list waiting to see whether he would even return for any part of the regular season after surgery on his right hand. 
  Today, Tampa Bay's All-Star outfielder would be the first one to tell you about the difference a year makes. 

Crawford, a legitimate American League Most Valuable Player candidate, joins teammates Evan Longoria and Jason Bartlett as the Rays' three candidates for this year's Hank Aaron Award. Fans can vote starting Wednesday on which player they think should be the finalist for their club.

<p>On a night to savor defense and relief pitching, Carl Crawford pulled back a home run with a leaping grab an inning before Curtis Granderson tripled and scored the tiebreaking run in the eighth inning. That boosted the American League to a 4-3 victory Tuesday night at new Busch Stadium, its seventh straight win since the All-Star Game has been used to determine home-field advantage for the World Series.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The Rays had a little difficulty sorting out their place in history, research showing they were the fifth team, not the first, to total 100 home runs and 100 stolen bases before the All-Star break.</strong></p>
<p>But, reflecting the speed and power required for such a feat, they did so in fewer games, 77, than any team. And with 100 homers and 118 steals, they could achieve more history. They&#8217;re on a pace for 210 homers and 248 steals. Only the 1996 Rockies finished with at least 200 of each.</p>
