■ Show Low knows Mathis as an ace (Oklahoma City Redhawks News)

Doug Mathis' hometown drew its name from a card game.
The RedHawks pitcher is from Show Low, Arizona, a picturesque small town that sits in the largest stand of Ponderosa Pine in the United States.

"I get asked about it all the time," Mathis said. "No one's ever heard of the name. Even people from back home in Arizona ask me, because I'm living in Phoenix now. They'll ask me where Show Low's at, because it's a funny story. But it's a good little town, though."
