Other hooks were verified (w/o subscription). I think the main/original hook as formulated has most interesting to a broad audience, HOWEVER the text of the article itself says he did not play for his "team" until his junior year, NOT that he did not play baseball (which would be more remarkable). I'm not sure this can be fixed while retaining all of the high interest of the original. If not, I might lean toward ALT2, though others might prefer ALT1. --[[User:Presearch|Presearch]] ([[User talk:Presearch|talk]]) 19:51, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
