Bocanegra Turns 100

Carlos Bocanegra, presuming he gets a cap against Slovenia will join the USMNT century club. He’s sitting at 99 now and will be the 11th player to reach 100 caps for the team, which is (according to wikipedia) more than any other national team. The other USMNT players with a hundred caps or more are…

Rank Player Caps Goals Years
1 Cobi Jones 164 15 1992–2004
2 Landon Donovan 138 46 2000–present
3 Jeff Agoos 134 4 1988–2003
4 Marcelo Balboa 128 13 1988–2000
5 Claudio Reyna 112 8 1994–2006
6 Paul Caligiuri 110 5 1984–1997
7 Eric Wynalda 106 34 1990–2000
8 Kasey Keller 102 0 1990–2007
9 Earnie Stewart 101 17 1990–2004
10 Tony Meola 100 0 1988–2006
Joe-Max Moore 100 24 1992–2002

 

Presumably by tomorrow night Captain Carlos will have his name etched onto that list.

To celebrate, here’s Carlo’s Bocanegra summing up his perfect dinner party for anyone interested in throwing him one for reaching the honor.
