ORONO – Jeremy Ham has a chance to become the second player from Lee Academy to win the Dr. John Winkin Mr. Baseball Award symbolic of the outstanding high school senior baseball player in Maine.

Ham has been named one of four finalists for the annual award, which will be presented Friday just before the 12th Maine High School Senior All-Star Baseball Game is played on Mahaney Diamond at the University of Maine. Game time is 7 p.m.

Previous winners of the award include Milwaukee Brewers righthander Matt Kinney of Bangor, last year’s recipient Greg Norton of South Portland, and Steve Coombs of Lee Academy, the 1992 recipient.
