Jake Bauers, first baseman for the Milwaukee Brewers, was close to walking away from Major League Baseball before making the call to stick with it. That decision has worked out well.
Bauers is now a finalist for the Hank Aaron Award, given annually to the best hitter 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.
