The Alaska Baseball League is a wood-bat league with a long tradition. It also had to cancel its 2020 season. Bobby Thigpen had a pretty good summer there playing first base for Kenai. Tom Seaver did well, but he pitched, as did Randy Johnson and Dave Stieb. Barry Bonds and Mark McGwire played their as well before finishing their college careers. Aaron Judge and Paul Goldschmidt are among the most recent ABL stars to become MLB stars.Comment
