Default The Best Baseball player born the same day as you

Based off the "Best Baseball Player Born on Thanksgiving top 3" thread it got me wondering who the best player born on the same day as me was.

Born Sept 4th there was only one obvious choice for me:
Mike Piazza

you can check it out at :

For me, November 17th, is a no brainier. Tom Seaver and I share the same date but Billy Macmillon (don't remember him) was actually born the same exact day and year as me.

I was going to do a thread like but checked and there were ZERO on my date of birth so hence the thanksgiving thread...and people born just on the day and month were pretty bad..

Hofers Bert Blyleven, Ernie Lombardi, and Mickey Cochrane. A total of 42 MLB players having the same birthdate as myself.

Bret Boone and I were both born on Easter Sunday April 6th 1969.

I know this is a common name thrown around on this board, but Shoeless Joe Jackson is actually the correct response in this instance.

Not a single decent player?

I see others listing multiple HOF and that is cool. I am in a family of 6 and not a single one of us shares a birthday with a HOF (until Piazza makes it for my DOB).

So my other family member best, in my opinion, are the following:
Wife - Dec 10th: Jimmy Johnston (Gregorio Petit was born the same day)
1st Born - Sept 12: Charlie Keller or Mickey Lolich (possibly Freddie Freeman, but too early to know)
2nd Born - Dec 12th: Orlando Hudson or Ralph Garr
3rd Born - Jan 13th: Kevin Mitchell or Bob Forsch
4th Born - July 6th: Manny Machado

I'm going to say Chris Sabo before checking the BR page.

And now I'm going to check the BR page!

It might be Phil Nevin! My vote is Sabo. Those goggles are dreamy.

Me and my dad have the same birthday. For "my" generation, the best would be Chase Utley. For "his" generation, the best would be Chico Cardenas.

However, my favorite would be Rebel Oakes. His T206 card was the first pre-war card I ever bought.

Cool thread!

April 15, 2 best players are probably Willie Davis and Jeromy Burnitz.

Best athlete born same exact day as me, April 15, 1965 is former Pittsburgh Penguin Kevin Stevens.

Jeff Cirillo, who, interestingly enough was my favorite player on the Brewers for several years, was born two years before I was. Darned good pure hitter and a great defensive third baseman. I always felt he got robbed out of a few Gold Gloves, and now the defensive metrics show I was probably right. Ken Caminiti won the 1997 NL Gold Glove at third base with a -1.0 dWAR, while Cirillo didn't get it at third in the AL with a +2.1 dWAR at third (Matt Williams at least had a 1.9 dWAR for the Indians). In 1998, Cirillo had a 1.9 dWAR, but Scott Rolen of the Phillies had a 1.7, and won it. In 2001, Cirillo had a 2.2 dWAR, but Rolen again won it, this time with a 1.2 dWAR. Oh well. Cirillo was a career .296 hitter. He hit .311 in his first 8 seasons, but hit the wall at age 32 when he went to Seattle.

My other choice is Matt Kemp. But I'm a Brewers fan, so Cirillo it is. Cirillo and Kemp both made two All Star Games. The only other player to ever make the All Star Game born on September 23 was Peter Harnisch, one time.

People that are into astrology may make more of this, but I find it interesting how some dates are stacked with great players and HOF then other dates you would really have to question using the word "great" even when they are the best for that particular birthday.

One list I found online from 2011 gave these numbers for the amount of HOF by month:

25 -- April
24 -- October
23 -- December
22 -- May
21 -- September
21 -- August
19 -- November
19 -- July
18 -- March
15 -- January
14 -- February
11 -- June

With someone stating:
Quote:
As best as I can tell, the record for HOF-ers appears to be May 14th with 5.

Earl Combs
Tony Perez
Ed Walsh
Alex Pompez (NeL Pioneer)
JL Wilkinson (NeL Pioneer)

Two dates have [four] inductees, April 2nd and April 6th

April 2nd:
Luke Appling
Hughie Jennings
Don Sutton
Al Barlick (Umpire)

April 6th:
Mickey Cochrane
Ernie Lombardi
Bert Blyleven (2011)
Smokey Joe Williams

I'd say Mark Buehrle and Gavvy Cravath for March 23.


OT: One of the most depressing moments of my life was when the Tribe let go of Travis Fryman, saying he was over-the-hill, and I looked and he's two days YOUNGER than I am. That's when my dream of becoming a major league shortstop ended.

Mark Buehrle would constitute the best player I went to High School with.

He was a senior when I was a freshman so no interaction nor did I know who he was. Now he is possibly going to retire so it does make me feel like I am cheated that he gets to retire and I still have several more years of work ahead of me. Oh well.

I was surprised by how many guys were listed for Dec 11th, not surprisingl was how many of them were journeymen, more or less "pluggers" just like me. Three recognizable names of players with notable careers popped out; Derek Bell. Lee Maye and Bill Nicholoson. At the bottom of the listing was one HOF'r Old Hoss Radbourn.

This is a fun thread!

I have 52 players with top of the list being Monte Irvin, Ron Santo, Andy Pafko, Paul O'Neill and Cesar Cedeno.

Some fun early players too. I might start a subcollection of players born on my birthday because of this, lol.

Another good thread idea!

Mine is Muhsin Muhammad who was a pretty darn good receiver in the NFL.

Now my assistant JV baseball coach was a kid in the minors who graduated a little earlier and came back to help the team till they called him up. I called him Coach Smoltz, his parents called him John.

Rich _ I was also born on January 6th...no doubt many moons before you.

in addition to Mr. Wynn, I would list Ruben Amaro, Sr, Ralph Branca, Norm Charlton, Kevin Gausman, Lenny Green (who played professionally in my hometown the year I was born), Don Gullett, & Wil Howard, the son (and star centerfielder) of the long-time Hall-of-Fame coach of my alma mata.

...and (2) T206 players: Joe Lake & Billy Purtell.

Alas with a birthday of February 29th my odds are 1/4th as good as any other day. However 1931 WS hero Pepper Martin was born on leap day 1904. He was gone by the time I was born in 1972.

In other sports, hockey's Simone Gagne got to bear the brunt of the "how old are you - oh that explains it" jokes. As did Tampa 2 inventor Monte Kiffin

And 50 others, some with fairly good careers but maybe not great, and a couple that haven't played long enough to tell. Not a bad group.

Default January 6th

While I was able to take my older brother to a football game on his birthday
(9/13), he cannot do the same (Baseball for me) for me as my birthday is January 6.

I do enjoy, however, enjoy having the latest Hall-of-Fame election results revealed every year on my birthday...just for me, right?

John Smoltz, George Brett, Justin Morneau and Josh Beckett are the 4 best I think.

Only played 6 years in the majors but would think he deserves to be on this list given his 2 gold medals, College and Pro football HOF.
