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 in the running for the Hank Aaron Award, handed out each year 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.
