Vintage Baseball Glove Forum

Robbie just had a new baby boy, Victor Maynard Leonhardi. The funny thing is that while he was in the waiting room he was negotiating a glove trade with me (and probably two other people knowing Robbie). I went from getting potential trader glove pics sent to me to getting a newborn baby picture. It was pretty funny because I didn't realize what was going on. Congrats man! Rob

Congratulations!!!

Is that his real name or are you just yanken' our chains?!?!? I want to see a birth certificate! If it's true, I have to say its fantastic and wonderfully unique. Alas, someone who has larger glove issues than I... hehehehe

Congrats - great name! Hope mother and child are doing well.

Not the baby's real name but it should have been, or TE or Lutzke based on what he was trading for (that night). Next time, Robbie! Oh, I know there will be a next time, right Robbie? Is four really enough?

Rob, I was the other culprit. Here's a quick note with the particulars. Congratulations Robbie!

JD

Yep I want it.

Gatlin was born Friday at 5:24 pm

9 pounds 5 oz . Momma and baby are doing great. Well momma and daddy are suffering from sleep depravation !!

I was involved also, talking in AM on friday before I left chootin, Touched base on monday. Guess he was shootin (Gatlin) to have enough to take infield one day??? Holler Robbie when you can!!

Yes, Robbie trades are usually a community affair

Apparently Robbie attempted Maynard but it was shot down quickly from mom. She was open to Dallas Cowboy last names, though, and they went with Gatlin, which is a heck of a lot better choice than Ogbagu.

Now thats hilarious!!! Good job Rob!!

I'm telling you, baby should have been named Maynard Lutzke Leonhardi!

Thanks guy 's! Ya momma wasn't going for Maynard,
Lutzke, Ehmke or anything glove related. She puts up with
Gloves all over the house but no way I was working anything glove
related into his name.

When your in the room waiting around for go time you have
A lot of time to work the trade lines so thanks to Rob,
JD, Don and Bert for working deals both trades and seller stuff
right up until Gatlin was born.

Congratulations Rob! You are one lucky dog! Hope the newbie stays healthy and has a great life ahead.

Hey Robbie, next time -- and I know there will be a next time -- say you are naming him after one of your former Mayors, Maynard Jackson:

Hey Robbie,

Congrats on the newborn. That is the catch of a lifetime. Great picture!!.
