The Last Best Player

When Vin Scully mentioned the other night that Chris Ianetta, the Rockies' catcher, was from Providence, something clicked in the back of my memory, and it dawned on me that he was on the Chatham A's team that was chronicled in The Last Best League. He is now, AFAIK, the third member of that team to make it to the bigs, after Tim Stauffer and Chad Orvella (now both back in the minors).
