Longest Name in Baseball History

Sorry there haven't been any posts in the last few days. I've been fighting with a health issue that is, thankfully, resolved.
Reader Ryan Morse asked that I post the "All-Long Names" Team that was on the broadcast May 8th in honor of Braves Rookie Jarrod Saltalamacchia.

Big Thanks to "Chyron Bob" Wehrsdorfer who does a great job creating many of the charts like this that you see on the broadcast.
Also, Ryan, you requested an email link on this page. That is something that we are working on and hope to have up soon.

What, no Mike Pagliarulo at third base? This is obviously an example of Matty's Bay Area bias. ;)
Great job, fellas.

I think I might have put Doug Mientkiewicz at 1st for the extra letter.
