The Story
- Time Together: Jose and Katherine met during his rookie season in 2003. The two were married on July 25th, 2008. Unlike most multi-millionaire professional baseball players, the ceremony was as low key as you can get, happening at city hall somewhere on Long Island. The couple later celebrated during the offseason with a lavish celebration in their native Dominican Republic.
As with most nights in July, Jose and the Mets had a game that night, during which Jose proceeded to hit an RBI triple to help propel the Mets to victory.
The couple has three daughters together, Catherine, Ashley, and Joselyn.

The Story
- Fun Facts: Jesus,... wow. We have no idea where to begin.
I guess we'll start it off in the St. Louis hotel suite of ESPN Baseball Tonight analyst Steve Phillips, when he and 22 year old production assistant Brooke Hundley first did the nasty(please note the artistic selection and double meaning of the word nasty). Apparently Phillips and Hundley began a brief, yet sordid affair in the summer of 09, which he has acknowledged. He states that Hundley has become obsessed and delusional, and police have now become involved.
Now it’s not normally good form to believe the personal attacks of a man who is repeatedly caught cheating on his wife, but in this case, Phillips might have a case. Some of the highlights of Hundley’s path of destruction through everything and everyone close to Phillips include:
1. Making threatening, rambling, phone calls to Phillips wife, Marni(who, took Phillips back after he admitted to cheating with Mets team employee Rosa Rodriguez in 1998).
2. Pretending to be a classmate of one of Phillip’s sons in order to become friends with him on Facebook. Once friended, she began making sexual overtures towards him.
3. Showing up at the home of Phillips to deliver a creepy, rambling, Fatal Attraction-esque letter to the wife of Phillips.
4. Hundley was caught by Phillips wife while delivering the aforementioned letter, and while trying to escape quickly, she crashed her car into a stone column on the Phillips’ property.
5. In the letter, she included graphic descriptions of Phillips genitalia in order to prove her authenticity, while also mentioning specific ongoing events in the familial life of the Phillips, with references to each of the four children.
This is in no way a tacit approval of what Phillips did, rather a rundown of the insanity that followed the affair. Phillips has acknowledged three sexual encounters with Hundley in July, 2009, but said he broke it off after that. He was originally suspended for one week by ESPN, and has since been granted an extended personal leave of absence.
There are sure to be more details to come out in this case, and we’ll continue to update as they become available.

For a baseball nerd like me,... those are sweet ass names.

The Story
- Time Together: The two had their first date on Valentine's Day, 1998 and were married November 6, 1999, despite Carlos proposing over the phone. The two were on their Honeymoon cruise when Carlos found out that he won the 1999 AL Rookie of the Year.
- Fast Facts: To get calm before every at bat, Carlos carves the letter 'J' (for Jessica) in the batter's box with his bat.
- Fun Facts: On October 11, 2008, Carlos and Jessica renewed their wedding vows in a joint ceremony with Marc Anthony and wife Jennifer Lopez in a Las Vegas hotel suite.
The timing of this created what may be the single most ridiculous mini-controversy the New York media has ever cooked up, when they began questioning why would Beltran plan a trip and ceremony to Las Vegas for the second weekend in October in the thrust of the playoffs. Beltran never responded to the criticisms, presumably because he had better things to do than entertain the incoherent musings of an insane press corps.

The Story
- UPDATE: It has been brought to our attention that Molly Beers and David Wright are no longer dating. While we have no details on the breakup, or official length of time together, it's evident that they are no longer together.
- Time Together: It is reported that Beers and Wright met at the 2006 World Baseball Classic.
- Fast Facts: Beers is a model with the Ford agency in New York City. She has appeared in JC Penney advertisements.
- Quote: Following a surprise birthday party that Wright threw for Beers in July, 2008, much of the local New York media reacted with surprise that Beers and Wright were still seemingly together. There were semi-persistent rumors at that time that Wright was involved in a relationship with NYC anchor woman Diana Russini. When Wright's publicist was asked about the Wright's many rumored relationships, they laughed it off with this quote to the New York Post: "David enjoys New York and all it has to offer."
