114 - Mark Grace

 

Front photo: Flipping to first.

Back photo: Post game celebration.

Better photo?: Gotta go for the one with ivy.

Ties to my personal collections: None.

Paragraphs in wikipedia entry: 26

Wiki-facts: "Grace's ex-wife, Michelle, married Ray Liotta in 1997 after meeting at a Cubs game."

Google it: He got himself a five-game suspension earlier this season for calling one of his ex-wives a 'dingbat' during a broadcast. Probably the aforementioned ex Mrs. Liotta as well.

How was his strike shortened 1994? Batted .298 with 6 HR and 44 RBI.

Birthday boy:  June 28, 1964. That's also the birth date of former MLBer Kevin Reimer. The NFL can add Dino Hackett and Bryan Barker to the list. The NFL birthday boys were also teammates for several seasons with the Chiefs in the early 90s.
