how's the air up there? (answered)

Sure the 'big unit' is tall...but who's the other tallest guy to grace the diamond? What position did he play? What team?

Hah!

Jon Rauch at 6'11" is the tallest but there's this guy pitching for Notre Dame, his name is Ryan Doherty, and he's 7'1" and 230 pounds. I can't imagine what it's like facing this guy.

Personally, I think he needs to beef up a little .

Ok goody...I'll take your word. I was actually looking for Hillman, as in Eric Hillman, a major league left-hander, who at 6-foot-10, was one of the (then) two tallest players ever to play big-league baseball. The 'other' was the unit.

I guess Hillman's been outgrown. Well done.
