Jake Bauers, first baseman for the Milwaukee Brewers, was on the verge of leaving from Major League Baseball before deciding to return. That decision has proven to be the right call.
Bauers is now a finalist for the Hank Aaron Award, handed out each year to the top offensive player in each league.
The Brewers are now competing 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.
