Enshrinement beckoned for Eideron *Knucklebreaker, as he was inducted into the Tolkien Baseball Hall of Fame today. *Knucklebreaker, who played most of his 2186 games at catcher, was an outstanding hitter and batted .297 over his career and swatted 587 home runs. Baseball’s newest legend collected 1557 RBIs and scored 1561 runs during his illustrious career.
But while he was class act on the field, it was off the field where Eideron *Knucklebreaker shined the most. He was most active in the Bree Cheese community, selflessly donating his time and money to various causes. The press was largely unaware of his charity and *Knucklebreaker never made a fuss about it.
“I played a child’s game for many years and this game brought me fame and fortune,” *Knucklebreaker explained during his ceremony. “For some people it’s enough, but my mother raised me to realize that money doesn’t make a person great. Being good at a game doesn’t make a person great. Helping those in need and giving of yourself selflessly is what makes a person great. And that’s what I have tried to be my entire life: great, both on the field and off of the field.”
