Talk:Matthew Willard

From BR Bullpen

The U. of Arkansas website lists his hometown as Newtown, PA. - --Mischa 12:18, 26 October 2008 (EDT)

All sources (except BR and MiLB) are saying he is "from" Newtown. This is certainly where he went to high school. Baseball America and Baseball Cube say he was "born" in Doylestown, PA which is very near to Newtown. They are both in Bucks County near Philadelphia. If I were to guess, I would say that Doylestown is probably where the hospital was or that the family moved a few miles while he was still a child. I'm fairly certain at this point that he was not born in Arkansas. A safe bet may be to just list Bucks County as his birthplace since both possible towns are there. I'll be writing a bio of Matt pretty soon. I'm gathering info right now. 69.68.238.142 11:16, 7 May 2009 (EDT)

I'm still working on this. I'll add some more tomorrow. Kinston eagle 22:45, 11 May 2009 (EDT)

The Kinston website now lists Willard as inactive while his MiLB page lists him as still active. He last played on Monday. Can't find any news stories about this. Kinston eagle 21:10, 21 May 2009 (EDT)
