The Frontier League is proud to announce the 2018 class of the Frontier League Hall of Fame. The 2018 class includes the first ever Lake Erie Crushers player: infielder Andrew Davis!

Andrew Davis began his Frontier League career with the Lake Erie Crushers in 2009. The infielder out of Kingston, Ohio, played for the Crushers from 2009 through 2014. In those six years, Davis made four All-Star appearances in 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2013 as well as receiving awards during the post-season in 2009 (third base) and 2011 (shortstop). Davis was one of the most feared switch hitters in league history. He possessed great power from both sides of the plate. He finished his career with a .292 career average, 71 home runs, 387 RBI, .851 OPS and 545 games played. Davis also ranks top three in career games played, at-bats, hits, and runs batted in.

The rest of the 2018 class consists of pitcher Andy Clark, pitcher Scott Dunn, pitcher Eric Massingham, pitcher Terry Pearson, Special Contributor - Duke Ward and Significant Moment - Baseball's Best Burger. The Hall of Fame Committee along with Frontier League Commissioner Bill Lee and Deputy Commissioner Steve Tahsler made the final nominations to the Frontier League Board of Directors, who unanimously approved the slate.

"This is a great class that will be inducted," Lee said. "All of the players had stellar careers."

The Crushers host their 10th Season Reunion Game on Friday, June 8th. Several players from the 2009 roster, including Davis, will be in attendance. Game time is 7:05pm, gates open at 6pm. There will be Post-Game Fireworks.
