A veteran presence checks in
SnakePit username: C. Wesley Baier
Place of birth: Tucson, Arizona
Other hobbies: Honestly, I enjoy just educating myself in as many topics as possible. I enjoy working as an activist, gardening, music (listen, playing, writing, performing), cooking, hiking, camping, and stand-up comedy.
Favorite food: Sushi? This is too broad of a question for me to pick one. I like anything that is well made, outside of a very short list of foods I do not like.
Favorite film/TV show: It’s very hard to pick one. Idk the works of Charlie Kaufman?
What else should we know about you? You would never know it looking at me, but I have a lot of health problems and will live with chronic pain the rest of my life. Be kind, you never know what someone is going through.
Why are you a Diamondbacks fan? I made a lot of bets on the team in ‘01, largely because Yankees fans got cocky.. I felt I owed the team my actual Fandom for the money I made.
Who’s your all-time favorite Diamondback? Randy Johnson
Outside of post-seasons, what’s your best D-backs memory? The friends I’ve made over the years!
How did you end up on the SnakePit? I was on the Dbacks Bullpen, and the website was mentioned.
What other MLB teams do you care about – good or bad! I’m just a general fan of baseball, no other team, in particular. Maybe the Royals as my AL team?
Why do you love baseball? The history and the absurd level of record keeping. It’s amazing how you can look up games from well over 120+ years ago.
