Brouillette Takes Place Among Greats
Wednesday, January 5th, 2033
Someone once said, "There's no crying in baseball." But the tears were flowing in abundance today at the Hall of Fame induction of baseball great Cohen Brouillette. They were tears of joy.
The superstar hurler got quite emotional at times during his speech as he retraced his journey from humble beginnings to the pinnacle of success in the baseball world.
He told the audience, "The greatest feeling in the world is to win a major league game. The second greatest feeling is to lose a major league game. For someone who truly loved playing baseball, I couldn't really lose either way. Just to be on a baseball diamond is a wonderful feeling. Life just doesn't get any better than that. I will really miss it."
Baseball newest legend ended his career at age 39 with 185 wins and 72 defeats and compiled a 3.66 ERA. Brouillette made 377 appearances and struck out 1969 in 2267.2 innings. Teams hit a composite .258 against him.
