Early in 2014, to mark
the 15th anniversary year of the Long Island Ducks playing in the Atlantic
League, the franchise asked fans to vote and create a 15th Anniversary
Team -- marking the greatest Ducks in
franchise history. The task was to select one player at each position, a
manager and final vote selection for a player that may have been overlooked. To
commemorate this undertaking, the Ducks released a 15th Anniversary Team
baseball card set in May highlighting the final selections.
This is a great keepsake
for all Duck fans really highlighting their history! The selections were as
follows:
