NEW YORK — R.A. Dickey languished in the minors for 14 years, bouncing from one team to another before finally perfecting that perplexing knuckleball that made him a major league star.

David Price was the top pick in the draft and an ace by age 25, throwing 98 mph heat with a left arm live enough to make the most hardened scout sing.

ANCHORAGE, AK - Alaska Sports Hall of Fame Executive Director Harlow Robinson and the Board of Directors announced Monday that the public can now contribute their choices for the people, moments and events to be inducted into the Hall. Public voting will be open through November 30, 2012 at www.alaskasportshall.org.
