I was born April 15, 1965, closest MLB players are Craig Worthington April 17, 1965 and Jeff DeWillis April 13, 1965.

Former NHL star Kevin Stevens was born the same day as me.

Orioles(yeah!) pitcher Jeff Schneider and Twins/Padres utility infielder Chuck Baker were born the day after I was.

Astros/Giants 2nd baseman Rob Andrews, with whom I share a name, was born six days after me.



Edited to add...a bit of research on BR's sister sites told me that not a single player in MLB, NBA, NFL, or NFL history was born on the same day as I was. But Shoelass Joe died exactly a year before I was born.

No, Rocky...I mean your actual birth date AND birth year...not just the date.
