All,
I got a nice email from the automated N54 system today wishing me a very Happy Birthday!!
Well, I thought that was pretty cool, even though it was a day early.
My birthday is actually tomorrow...Sept 21st...but it got me thinking that we might all want to know which baseball players share our birthdays...

Most famous is probably Cecil Fielder, who is embarrasingly one year younger than I am (he'll only be 47)
Scott Spiezio had a few big years too. Current Phillie Antonio Bastardo turns 25 tomorrow, and one old guy you may have seen before also was born on Sept 21st...see scan (borrowed scan, but this is the only Mayo I own, I don't have a scan or the card handy)
So, who shares a birthday with a famous player? Do you specifically collect that player accordingly?
Have some fun...scans please!
