Larry Granillo	Writer	www.wezen-ball.com
Larry Granillo is author of the blog Wezen-Ball.com and a lifelong fan of the game. Growing up in Central California and unencumbered by a hometown team, he quickly became a fan of the late-80s, hardluck Orioles, rooting for the likes of Cal Ripken and, later, Robbie Alomar and Mike Mussina. After college, he was drawn to the bright lights of Milwaukee, WI, where the bratwursts, cheese fries, and exciting young ballplayers of Miller Park quickly took their hold. Today, you can find him happily biking to the ballpark about 20 times a year, scorecard always in hand. Over at Wezen-Ball.com, Larry tries to offer a unique perspective on a wide array of topics. Using some do-it-yourself statistical analysis and various contemporary accounts, including newspapers, books, and his collection of annual baseball preview guides, Wezen-Ball might cover such diverse topics as whether two ballgames have ever played out identically, how feared Jim Rice truly was during his playing days, and what happened to Snoopy as he chased down the Babe's record.

Derrick Goold	Baseball Writer	www.stltoday.com/blogzone/bird-land/
Derrick Goold is a baseball writer for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, covering the Cardinals and Major League Baseball and all sorts of other baseball-related things for the paper. He grew up near Boulder, Colo., marooned in the Time Zone Baseball Forgot and surviving on a diet of box scores, All-Star Baseball discs, a friend’s cable hookup, week-old Boston Globes, Sports Illustrated, and Nintendo’s "Baseball Stars." After graduating from the University of Missouri’s School of Journalism, he relocated like his real boyhood team – those mighty Denver Zephyrs – to New Orleans and worked at The Times-Picayune, ultimately covering LSU. Then it was back home, to cover the NBA and whatever Rockies sidebars he could get for The Rocky Mountain News. He was at the ballpark when the job offer came from the P-D. There Goold moved from the NHL beat to become, finally, a full-fledged baseball writer in 2004. Derrick has won some awards, for investigative, enterprise and breaking-news work, mostly. He’s been published in books, has the most-read blog at the P-D, and married a striking gal, who now has as many Emmys as he has softball trophies. When Skip Bertman met her, he puffed: "Somebody had a 4-for-4 day." He lives with his wife, Erika, and their talkative toddler, Ian, in St. Louis. Goold is also a World Record Holder. Seriously. Pictured with his teammates in this year’s Guinness Book of World Records for playing in the longest baseball game. He manned second base a 32-hour, 29-minute, 25-second game. He is believed to be the only player who, after 92 innings, didn’t score a run.
