Born and raised in Cincinnati, Matt grew up loving the Reds and became a die-hard fan while living in Pittsburgh and experiencing the 2013 Wild Card game. He is currently living in the land without baseball (for now), Portland, OR, where you can find him exploring the great outdoors whenever he is not watching baseball.
