How many years have you played for the Baycats?
10 years.
What on-field strengths do you bring to the Baycats?
I can hit and field the ball... don't do anything flashy just get the job done.
Can read the play quickly and make the right decisions. Good leader...
And I make the uniforms look good!
What do you most need to improve to help the Baycats in season 2008/2009?
I'd like to get my arm into shape so I could give the pitchers a helping hand.
What is your best baseball memory?
Watching Leigh Holmes and Jacob Mills get beaten in a foot race by Phoebe Mills for a hot dog... hilarious! That and winning premierships for the Wildcats! Oh, and when the Big Unit got snipered as he ran for home plate. Oh, oh, and when Booma struck out Hammer... pretty good too!
Who are your baseball heroes?
Don't really know many MLB players, I wouldn't call these guys my heroes but I like watching Cam Forbes, Dean Marnell, Ben Hammer and Mark Jeffery go about their business.
Where is the best field you've ever played?
Geelong Baseball Centre... before the new infield skin went down!
If you could give up one thing to play one day of Major League Baseball, what would it be?
Most things but nothing good like sex, a night on the town or beers.
Apart from Geelong, where is your favourite city?
Lara is #1, then I like Amsterdam.
If Millsy could cook you anything for dinner this Thursday after practice, what would it be?
1kg of Pork Spare Ribs Bourbon Flavour.
What was the last album you downloaded on your Ipod / listened to?
Kings of Leon, 'Only by the Night'.
What was the last book you read cover to cover?
James Patterson's 'The Big Bad Wolf' and halfway through Patterson's 'The Quickie'.
If you could sleep all day tomorrow, what would you do tonight?
What I do every other Saturday night... Close Home House!!!!
If you could invite any three people to dinner, dead, alive, or mythical, who would they be and why?
Jim Beams 'The Girlfriend'... She'd dig me.
Hugh Hefner in hope that he will in return, invite me around for dinner.
Some goof that would make me look good in front of the other two... Willo will do.
GO BAYCATS!!!!
