Michael was a spectator at a Gators game when they were short a player. Rather than forfeit, Wes Humphreys, the pitcher / manager asked Michael to play. He hesitated then agreed. Michael was a medium-dark, medium-heavy black man of around thirty. Making his appearance unusual was his flaming red hair in cornrows and a mustache and goatee that were even brighter. He spoke with a strange guttural accent.
