Jake Bauers, first baseman for the Milwaukee Brewers, was on the verge of leaving from Major League Baseball before choosing to come back. That decision has proven to be the right call.
Bauers is now a finalist for the Hank Aaron Award, given annually to the outstanding offensive performer in each league.
The Brewers are currently in the National League Division Series against the San Diego Padres. Game 3 goes Tuesday, October 7 at 9:30 p.m. ET on FS1.
