Jose Canseco: Striking Out in Worcester, On the Field and Off


Yep, that's actually Jose Canseco's number...and I just called it. But no, he did not answer (definitely not the last time I call today). Still, it didn't go straight to voicemail, it rang a few times, so maybe he's just not up yet, or maybe he's taking some early morning batting practice...or maybe, he finally scored with some lucky Worcester waitress...

Deadspin - At the age of 47, and more than a decade removed from his career as a Major League player, Jose Canseco just won't quit trying to do what he loves the most: hitting on young women. According to a tipster, Canseco has taken a run at "about a half dozen" female employees aged 19-23 at a restaurant he's been frequenting in Worcester, Mass. At one point, Canseco even slipped the phone number you see above to a 19-year-old hostess. So has he been striking out? Says the tipster: "Not even a foul tip...just straight swinging through."

Look, I've been to Worcester a few times, and if there's one thing I know for sure, it's that Jose is not striking out. The man is built like a gorilla. He's your prototypical townie waitress one night stand material. Sure this girl might have taken a pass, but that's probably because he just got done nailing her co-worker/roommate the night before.  Keep plugging Jose, the hits will come...and answer my damn phone calls!
