  • Member of 2003 World Series champion Florida Marlins, and was named the Marlins' most valuable player by the South Chapter of theBaseball Writers Association of America
  • Received the James "Cool Papa" Bell Legacy Award from the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in 2003
  • Led the National League in stolen bases in 2001 (46) and 2003 (65)
  • Pierre was the only player in baseball to play every inning of all his team's games in 2004, and was only the third player to do it since 1971.
  • On May 9, 2006, Pierre robbed the San Francisco Giants' Barry Bonds of a career 714th home run, which would have tied Bonds with Babe Ruth for second on the all-time list, by catching the ball right before it topped the fence.
  • Was the first Marlin to record 200 hits in a season
  • On July 29, 2008, Pierre stole his 100th base with the Dodgers, becoming only one of four players in MLB history to steal at least a hundred bases with three different teams. He previously stole 100 with the Colorado Rockies and 167 with the Florida Marlins. Tommy Harper, Brett Butler, and Otis Nixon are the only others to have accomplished this feat.[17]
  • Pierre tied former Dodger Steve Sax on the top fifty career MLB stolen base leaders list with 444 on June 12, 2009, against the Texas Rangers in Arlington.[18] The next day, June 13, he pushed Sax out of the top 50 with his 445th steal, again versus the Rangers in Arlington.[19][20]
  • On June 13, 2010, Pierre broke up Ted Lilly's Crosstown Classic no hitter with a hard hit line drive up the middle with no outs in the top of the ninth.
  • Led the American League in stolen bases in 2010 (68)
  • On September 8, 2011, Pierre picked up his 2,000 hit against the Cleveland Indians.
  • Pierre stole his 600th base against the Philadelphia Phillies on May 2, 2013, becoming the 18th player in MLB history to reach that mark.
  • Has the most stolen bases of any active player (608 through June 10, 2013), which is currently 18th all-time.
