A History of Adam Wainwright in costume - A Hunt and Peck

As someone with a love for both Adam Wainwright and costumes, I have long been tasked with the responsibility of chronicling this storied love affair between the two. I am sure there will be many a wonderful costume to come, but for now, as the Halloween and baseball seasons move behind us, let us reflect on some of Waino's greatest hits.
