The fascination with Ubaldo Jimenez has always been undeniable. His long limbs, his engaging smile, his hints of unrivaled brilliance.

He grew up in San Cristobal, Dominican Republic, a dreamer. As he stood at his locker at Turner Field on Saturday night, a bottle of Charles Lafitte champagne at his feet, the 26-year-old Jimenez had officially made it.
