Christmas Entry – Part One
With today being Christmas Eve, I thought it’d be a good time to post a Christmas related baseball entry. I recieved the below answers last month, but wanted to wait until today (and tomorrow) to post them. Below is part one of the answers. I recieved SO many replies that I didn’t want to try and cram them all in into one entry.
I asked MLB players (and some minor leaguers) what the best present they ever recieved for Christmas was. I recieved some well thought out answers, and some, well, not so much. I hope you enjoy:
STEVE CISHEK
My two front teeth.
JEREMY GUTHRIE
A Pizzaz pizza cooker. Thing makes the perfect pizza out of frozen pizza! #BestChristmasGift
