Omar Infante’s wife Yohanna Infante believes that home is where the heart is. The two native Venezuelans live in Lecheria on the northeast coast of their country. Man, there is a lot of Venezuelan baseball talent in the Majors. The Giants and the Royals are no stranger to that talent either. After last night, Kansas City is really appreciating it more than they ever have. Omar busted the tie and broke the game open. Omar…
Nori Aoki’s wife Sachi Ohtake Aoki has been with him since 2008, having been introduced by a mutual friend. They tied the knot about two years later. This was a big move for Sachi since she was formerly a television broadcaster in Japan, and she had a serious career going for herself. Up and moving to the United States to be with her pro baseball-playing husband was a big decision. Sachi was well aware of…
Javier Lopez’s wife Renee Richards Lopez waited until Javier got his degree to marry him. This was at the insistence of Renee’s father, whom asked young Javier to wait to get it before getting hitched. My guess is he saw it as incentive? Either way, I like how Renee’s father was thinking. Plan for the future and insure yourself with a degree. Mind you, he only finished his degree (in psychology) three years after he…
Yusmeiro Petit’s wife Veronica Salas is not superstitious. Clearly, she would not have done what she did if she was, and I don’t blame her for what she did either. I’m talking, of course, about the near-perfect game her husband missed last year back in September. Yusmeiro and his wife were both at the game, and Petit was pitching. He’d pitched a perfect game all the way up to the 9th inning with two outs…
Jason Vargas’ wife Shelley Vargas is another case of Major League Baseball’s endearing high school sweetheart syndrome. Of all the big sports (baseball, basketball, football, hockey, and even golf) I am now quite confident that baseball has the most dudes married to their high school sweethearts. And what a sweet heart she has, that Shelley. Jason’s wife Shelley is a Cali girl, born in Lake Forest. The couple upped and moved to sunny and scorching…
Gregor Blanco’s wife Mirna Blanco likes to hit the beach, and I like to see her hitting the beach. The lovely lady looks even lovelier when she’s at the beach in her two piece. She’s pretty funny too. I like her tweet regarding what sorts of text messages girls get: ‘You gotta text her goodnight if she’s special. The other bitches just get the “oh my bad I fell asleep” text in the morning.’ Classic,…
You know, there are some pretty clever and well-adjusted Mormons out there. Ken Jennings tops the list, but Jeremy Guthrie and his wife just joined the club. Jeremy Guthrie’s wife Jenny Guthrie just recently finished running a marathon, attended a charity event for a Kansas City Hospital, and she helps Jeremy record his awesome “Throwdown Thursday” videos for Twitter. If you’ve never heard of Throwdown Thursday, allow me to explain what Jenny helps him with….
