52.02 Kinsella Welcomes Baby Girl

Post by shoeless.db » Fri Sep 30, 2022 4:04 pm

SACRAMENTO (AP) -- Mad Popes backstop, John Kinsella, did more than cradle in fastballs on Tuesday night's 8-1 win over the visiting San Fernando Bears. The 25-year-old, along with his wife Samantha, welcomed to the world their first child, daughter Rose Michelle, during the sixth inning of the game.

"Thankfully, we batted around in the sixth," Kinsella said. "Because my mother-in-law told me I better get my ass to Suite 83, that's where all the players' families watch the game, because my wife was in labor."

The young catcher sprinted up the stairs in full uniform and metal cleats, reaching the expectant mother just in time to catch his newborn daughter.

With a big grin on his face, Kinsella said, "If I'd gotten there just a second later, my poor daughter would have ... well, let's just say it would have been my first passed ball of the season."

(Editor's Note: Mother and daughter are doing fine. Mother-in-law still not happy)

Life is a bit more beautiful when time is measured by the half inning rather than the half hour.

Keep the hot dogs away from little Miss Kinsella. Got a bad feeling.

That's gotta be the nastiest offering Kinsella has ever caught.

Hope he had one of those oversized, knuckleball-catching mitts…
