Congrats to Peter Fairbanks and the Tampa Bay Rays for making it to the World Series. Peter played for the Tigers and was the 2008 SLABA 14U All-Star Game MVP.
He is the first former Tiger to make it to the World Series!
Peter battled back from two Tommy John surgeries to earn his spot in the MLB.
You can read one account of his dedicated battle through the grueling process from Ross Clites, a former Gamers' coach and All-Star Performance instructor that also worked with Easton Tigers pitchers:
