Originally from Chicago and after an extensive tour of most of the western United States, Richard has resided in Denver since 2004. He attends quite a few Rockies games, especially Rockies fireworks games! When not writing about baseball, he enjoys karaoke downtown, a bit of poker, and a bit too much of his iPad. His writing has appeared on ESPN.com, The Hardball Times, and Beyond the Box Score. He has also covered the Rockies as a credentialed writer as the founder of Rockies Zingers and as a writer for SBNation’s Purple Row.
