...Yankee outfielder's career has been a roller-coaster ride of stunning successes on the field and dismal failures off of it. Winner of the 1983 Rookie of the Year award, World Series champion in 1986 with the New York Mets, and National League home run leader two years later with 39, Strawberry was hailed as an excellent hitter.

Sure enough, she just "happened" to be from the same area of California as her husband, also roller-bladed, and eagerly gushed abou her love for golf (he, suspiciously enough, developed golf courses in the area).
