It took 11 innings to complete the first game of the 2012 MLB season. It also took 11 innings for Dustin Ackley to assert his dominance over baseball.

“Upton is sort of a wild card this season. He is 2 years removed from his shoulder surgery, but has never really seemed the same. Just 27 years old, it's tough to find guys to hit 20 homers and steal 40 bases. Actually slipping into a tier I may draft him in this season.” @tofantasysports, Mar 6th |
