Tim LincecumTim Lincecum, who has earned the nickname "The Freak" for his unique pitching style, is one of the smallest pitchers in the majors … and most feared. While pitching for the San Francisco Giants in 2008, "Tiny Tim" put together a season that seemed to defy logic. Tim earned his first career All-Star nod and graced the cover of Sports Illustrated and ESPN the Magazine. He finished the year with an 18-5 record, 2.62 ERA and a Major League-leading 265 strikeouts that earned him the National League Cy Young Award. Tim is currently the cover boy for 2K Sports' Major League Baseball 2K9 and an avid gamer. When he is not playing ball with MLB® 2K9, he also enjoys playing a few rounds of Gears of War® 2. 
Morneau swings a mean bat. Justin MorneauJustin Morneau, an All-Star first baseman for the Minnesota Twins, is a former AL MVP and the reigning Home Run Derby champion. Jon LesterJon Lester is a rising star with the Boston Red Sox, having already pitched a no-hitter and won a World Series championship at the age of 25. B.J. RyanB.J. Ryan, a left-handed pitcher for the Toronto Blue Jays, is a 2-time All-Star and one of the most feared closers in all of baseball. If you get a chance to play with these great baseball stars, we want to hear all about it! We'll be posting recaps from gamers all across the country.
