Gary Allen

## About

Gary Allen is a generic boy with a wide head and an olive complexion. He has a good power swing.

He is a clone of Joella Minotti and a near clone of Amir Khan. They both more closely resemble Amir when he's boosted as Achmed's teammate as opposed to his normal ratings.

## Scouting Reports

### Backyard Baseball 2001 and 2003

Gary Allen

Gary's main appeal is his strong bat. He has a power rating of 89/100 and, coupled with a 64 contact, can be a big slugger on your team. However, other than that, he leaves a lot to be desired. He's on the slower side, at just 46 speed, and he's not a great fielder, with a coordination of 42 and an arm strength of 36. He does have high ratings in intelligence (87) and attention (88), but those seem to be the least useful ratings in the game.

## League History

### BBL

#### Season 3

Generics were made widely available in Season 3, and Gary was first drafted 169th overall to start the 8th round by coach gmchappe of the Red Sox. It was here that he first showed the league his power skills, smacking 14 home runs and driving in 43 RBIs.

#### Season 4

With word spreading about his poor defense, and with a slightly expanded player pool, Gary dropped to the 209th slot in the 9th round of the draft where he was selected by coach crazyei8hts of the Giants. As part of the lineup with the most home runs in a single season in BBL history, Gary hit 16 of them and drove in 48 RBIs.

#### Season 5

The next season, Gary was taken in the 9th round again, with the 190th overall pick by coach Marco of the Yankees. While his power numbers were down, he did bat a career high 0.702 for the Yanks.

#### Season 6

Impressed by his performance, coach Marco brought Gary back to the Yankees with the 173rd overall pick in the 8th round. However, at the spacious Casa de Pablo, Gary and the rest of the Yankees had an awful season offensively.

#### Season 7

Marco and the Yankees had to have their fan favorite, so they brought Gary back for a third season after taking him with the 167th pick in the 7th round. Gary batted a career worst 0.458, but he did double his home run output from the season before.

#### Season 8

For the first time since Season 4, Gary wasn't a Yankee, as he was selected with the 183rd pick in the 8th round by coach Emery92 of the Bombers. Gary rebounded superbly in Season 8, batting 0.623 with 15 home runs and a career high 50 RBIs. He helped the Bombers win the Season 8 World Series.

#### Season 9

In Season 9, Gary was taken 172nd overall in the 8th round by coach bobbyJONES2370 of the Angels. He had another great season at the plate, hitting 13 home runs in 20 fewer at bats than the season before. Due to his efforts, he was the Angels' nominee for the All-Star Game.

#### Season 10

##### 2001

For the 2001 league of Season 10, Gary was taken 170th overall in the 8th round by coach Loba of the Marlins. At the Marlins' home field of Tin Can Alley, Gary's main strength of power hitting was essentially taken away, and he finished with just 3 home runs, all of which came during road games at Parks Dept. #2.

##### 2003

In the 2003 league of Season 10, Gary reunited with coach crazyei8hts of the Giants for the first time since Season 4. He was taken with the 165th overall pick in the 8th round, but that ended up being a huge bargain. Gary turned out to be the Giants' main source of offense, leading them in home runs (16) and RBIs (44). Due to his efforts, he was nominated as the Giants' all-star.

## Trivia

* Oddly enough, through Season 9, Gary had as many home runs (70) as the Backyard Kid he is based of off, Amir Khan.
