I first came up with the concept for this website in 1989, and after many years of research and gathering some funds, I finally
put it all together. In Corona, Queens New York, there are a lot of talented baseball players. On 97st with 37 ave, hidden
deep within the bushes is where the hope of Corona baseball lives. In 37-32 97st lives perhaps the craziest of the three baseball
players, Onel "MAKE YOUR MAMA CRY WITH HIS FASTBALL" Hidalgo. Onel Hidalgo stands at 6 foot 3 inches, weighing 205
pounds and is a right-handed pitcher. In the summer of 2005, Hidalgo threw a ball from the wall of PS 19, over the gate, and
across the street. It was said that the ball went so high and far that it came back down wet from the rain in the stratosphere.
Four houses away on the 3rd floor of 37-50, lives the most ferocious of them all, Kendel Ortiz. Kendel Ortiz stands at 6 foot
2 inches, 220 pounds and is a right handed hitting catcher for the Queensborough Community College Tigers. Ortiz has an extremely
powerful bat, and is extremely powerful, period. In the summer of 1999, during an innocent game of wiffle ball, Ortiz roofed
a McDonalds plastic ball over a 6-story building. Until this day, scientists have been trying to figure out how that was possible,
but somehow, someway, it happened. Two floors above Ortiz, lives the power-hitting outfielder Wilmer "MAN-HANDS"
Chavez. Wilmer Chavez stands at 6 foot 3 inches, weighing 205 pounds. Chavez is currently located in Santiago, Dominican Republic
practicing in a baseball camp. Chavez once hit 117 homeruns in one season at PS 19; the runner up had 47 homeruns.
