After seven years of having his name incorrectly spelled and announced at major and minor league ballparks all over the United States, Los Angeles Angels first baseman Kendry Morales has decided to speak up and set the record straight.
His first name is actually spelled with an ‘s’.
From Kevin Baxter’s LA Times blog:
His given name on his birth certificate is spelled Kendrys, with an “s” on the end. Asked Wednesday which spelling he preferred, Morales was adamant about restoring the final consonant.
“No, no, no, no, no. They’ve been spelling it wrong,” he said in Spanish.
