Born in Philadelphia, Michael is a screenwriter now residing in Los Angeles. But despite the move, he has stayed loyal to the Phillies - even after years of losing and playoff failures. But it all became worth it when he finally got to witness a World Series championship in 2008. To celebrate, he flew home to Philadelphia the next day for the victory parade - still the best sports experience he's had. His all time favorite player is Darren Daulton, who was the reason Michael wore #10 during his short stint as a baseball player.
