About Rebecca »

Still trying to combine medieval politics and swordplay with baseball fanaticism. Die-hard Yankees fan and occasionally delusional. Graduated Syracuse University in 2008, with a degree in history, and attempting to finish an MA in medieval history at Fordham University.

If you can figure out how this relates to baseball, please let me know.

Also love Devils hockey, Syracuse basketball and I grit through Nets basketball and Jets football.

Anglophile, bibliophile and, like Phil Rizzuto, terrified of thunderstorms

Am the only person in the world who has a five-piece sword collection resting comfortably against a cardboard-cutout of Martin Brodeur.

Hey Rebecca,

Mark Buerhle's superhuman performance on Thursday brought back great memories for me of the last American League pitcher prior to pitch a perfect game. On July 18th, 1999, I watched my favorite player David Cone add his name to a hallowed list. Only nine years old, it was a mesmerizing moment much like my first time at Disney World. And in this article, I relived it!

Hey,

After the great success of my first article about the uniform numbers 1-10, I have come back with the next installment, with the best players to wear the uniform numbers 11-20. I hope you can take a look and even comment on my choices. Thanks in advance!

This is my best friend in the world. Plus he can write a mean article. Check him out. If you say something nice, I'm sure he will mention you on his weekly sports talk show here in Vegas and worldwide on the www. He is paying me to do this.
