Hall of Fame Honors Ange Dubois
Monday, November 10th , 2149
The World Baseball Association Hall of Fame honors those players who are the best at their position, those special individuals whose skills make them unforgettable in the eyes of baseball fans everywhere. Another such player was recognized today, as second baseman Ange Dubois was enshrined at his induction ceremony.
There was no mistaking the look of pride on Ange Dubois's face as he saw his statue for the first time and the plaque recounting the many accomplishments over his 1895-game career. Dubois played until he was 38 and had a lifetime .309 batting average with 127 home runs. Baseball's newest Hall of Famer batted in 754 runs and scored 1251 times.
Fans of all ages watched in appreciation as Dubois blinked back tears. "I really don't know what to say during such an enormous moment," he managed to finally say, "because words cannot describe all the feelings and thoughts running through my head. The love and appreciation from all my fellow players and all the fans out there has been overwhelming, but I would not be here today without the love and support of my family. My greatest thanks goes to them."
