'If they call me, I'm coming:' Former Cardinals slugger Mark Hamilton set to graduate med school — in New York

St. Louis Cardinals' Mark Hamilton bats during a 2011 game against the Colorado Rockies in St. Louis. On Friday, April 10, 2020, under an accelerated schedule prompted by dire circumstances, the former big leaguer is set to graduate a month early from medical school on Long Island. Next stop for the rookie doc, most likely, is the first-hand fight against the coronavirus pandemic. (AP Photo/Jeff Roberson)
