Baseball career

In 2001, playing for the Chianan Luka of the Taiwan Major League, Fingleson compiled a batting average of .369.

In 2004, he was part of the Australian Olympic baseball team, that won a Silver Medal in the baseball tournament at the Athens Olympics.

That year he also played for the New Haven County Cutters of the Independent Northeast League, and hit .299.

In 2006 he was an infielder for the Australian team at the World Baseball Classic. [http://www.worldbaseballclassic.com/2006/rosters/index.jsp?sid=t760]

In the fall of 2007 he was selected to represent Australia at his third World Cup in November, and will be the only non-professional player in the team to travel to the games, which will be held in Taiwan and Japan.

He will close the curtain on his international baseball career after the 2008 Olympics in Beijing – should Australia make it through the qualifiers.

Fingleson played in 2007 for Baulkham Hills in the New South Wales Major Leagues. [http://www.ajn.com.au/news/news.asp?pgID=4279]
