At 41, former closer Gagne hoping WBC spurs major comeback (Yahoo Sports)

Nearly a decade since he last pitched in the big leagues, Eric Gagne is gearing up for the World Baseball Classic - and maybe a major comeback. The former Cy Young Award closer threw a scoreless inning Tuesday for Team Canada in a 7-1 win over the Toronto Blue Jays, consistently hitting 93 mph with his fastball. Now 41, Gagne turned a one-shot deal into this opportunity.
