On the day of Fred McGriff's Baseball Hall of Fame induction, the Atlanta Braves' Triple-A affiliate did right by Crime Dog with a Tom Emanski tribute.
McGriff hit 30 home runs for the 2002 team, becoming the oldest Cub to do so at 38. It was his 10th year with 30 homers. It also was his last full season.

For Rolen, one of two players inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame on Sunday, that honor was reserved for an unexpected moment with his parents after he was called up for his first major league game in 1996. “Seeing Mom and Dad walk to their seats from my position at third base was a feeling never topped again in my 17 years,” Rolen said during his 16-minute acceptance speech.
