Position: IF

Bats/Throws: R/R

Nicknames: Gatz, Scooter, Hitman, Bob.  "Gaspipe is a derivative of 'Gas Can', which Donkey laid on me a couple of years ago.  I hated it, so O changed it to 'Gaspipe', which is only marginally better - but it's kinda stuck.  I prefer "Hitman" which I got in Florida one year while hitting .532.  But I don't think anyone here is gonna use it.  They really don't like me all that much."

Single:

One Dog: I have a two year old German Shepherd Dog named Kali.

Baseball Background:  Scott played only five years of little league and Babe Ruth baseball as a boy in Duluth and then picked the game back up as in adult in 1992 at the age of 32.  He has also played in both the Park National amateur league and the American Baseball Association since that time.  He first joined the over 35 league as a 33-year-old catcher and played for three teams before he joined the Saints in 2002.  He came over in a blockbuster trade with Lexington Park involving a warm six-pack of Old Milwaukee, one pair of sanitary socks, a used ball bag and, oddly enough, several items of women's under garments.  This transaction is viewed by many as a turning point in league history.  The debate has been mainly over whether it was a positive or negative turning point.

Favorite Pro Team:  LA Dodgers

Profession:  Scott has been a computer network engineer for the past 13 years since closing his less than lucrative commercial photography studio.

Hobbies:  Photography, music, motorcycles, movies & computers
