RANDOM BASEBALL FACT OF THE DAY

For today's fact of the day, since we are not that far removed from the Grammys and the Academy Awards are not far off, I thought today's fact should be about none other than former Angels owner, and entertainer extraordinaire, Gene Autry.

Autry is the only celebrity to have five stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and was also the first person to have a certified gold record. So, the fact of the day is Gene Autry is the only person with a certified gold record or star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame to have a number retired by a Major League Baseball team!

That is, of course, until Wilson Betemit shows off his all his talents!
