Born in San Francisco on May 7, 1979. I enjoy reading, watching tv, gardening, and going to movies. 6'0", 255 lbs. Explosive bat, speedy. Bats: R. Throws: Badly.
Baseball history: Turned a double play at age 7. Best amateur game: I went 5-9 with 3 1bs, a 2b, and 3b (and 2 ks). Injured my knee (practicing, ironically) the day before my semi-pro tryout in 2003.
Was at Game 20 in 2002. Caught a ball from J. Dye in his first game back in 02. Was at Game 5 in the ALDS against Boston in 03. Was at Game 3 in the ALDS against Detroit in 06. Got to bat at AT&T park (5 pitches, struck out) in 2007. Saw part of the AAA All-Star game in San Francisco. Attempted to see the 2010 Home Run Derby in Anaheim (got stuck on the grapevine for 2+ hours). Went to Matsui's walkoff game earlier this year. Planning to attend All-Star festivities in Arizona (2011) and Kansas City (2012). Planning to go see Frank Thomas' induction into Cooperstown.
Favorite baseball players: A's: Henderson (both), Stewart, McGwire, Canseco, Tejada, Chavez, Swisher, Thomas, Bradley, Dye, Long, Stairs, Kennedy, Piazza, Cust, Bradford, M.Sweeney, Hudsonmulderzito
Favorite obscure and semi-obscure A's players: Mabry (Mr. Clutch), Lilly, the late C. Lidle, Bowie and McMillon.
Favorite non-A's players: Griffey Jr., Sosa, Bonds, Galarraga, Sheffield, Thome, Al.Belle, the Fielders, Pujols, R.Howard, J.Morgan, M.Vaughn, Ripken, Gwynn
