Wil Nieves and Yormarie have their Barcelona baby

If you look up my previous post on this subject, Wil Nieves of the Washington Nationals was waiting for the call to attend his first child's birth with his wife Yormarie; the child was conceived romantically and oenologically in or near Barcelona, Spain.

Well, the call came: Wednesday refers to August 18.

Catcher Wil Nieves and his wife Yormarie welcomed their first daughter into the world on Wednesday. Marie Isabel Nieves, born at 5:28 p.m., measured 20.5 inches and weighed 7.06 pounds. Both mother and child are doing well, according to the Nationals' PR staff. Nieves could rejoin the team sometime this weekend in Philadelphia, though it wouldn't surprise me if the team gave him until it gets back home on Monday.
