In a league dominated by towering sluggers, triple-digit heaters and highlight-reel superstars, baseball still finds room for the grinders, the gamers, the scrappy glue guys and the certified pests who never take a pitch off and somehow always seem to be in the middle of a rally, a web gem, or a gritty win.
