Can you identify the Major Leaguer from his Little League photo?

By Gemma Kaneko

This Saturday marks the first-ever Play Ball Weekend, a two-day baseball bonanza from May 14-15 that's just for kids (or anyone who's a kid at heart). This new MLB initiative is all about encouraging youth participation in America's pastime, whether that means playing pepper in the backyard or competing in the Little League World Series. 
Luckily, some of our favorite big leaguers shared their Little League photos, and now it's your job to tell us who's who. Don't forget to share a photo or video with #PlayBall this weekend to show off all the ways you play. Maybe you'll see yourself in a quiz like this someday!
Want to see more photos of your favorite Major Leaguers when they were kids? Follow @PlayBall on Twitter.
