Description

Richard Stephen "Bubba" Crosby (born August 11, 1976) is an American former professional baseball outfielder who played in Major League Baseball for the Los Angeles Dodgers and the New York Yankees from 2003 to 2006.

Name
He became Bubba when he was born and his 15-month-old sister, Charmin, could not say "brother". The name stuck. But as he said, "almost everyone in Texas is Bubba when you're growing up." He said when he got to be dating age, "I tried to change it in school, call myself Richard, but kids would call for me and ask for Richard, and my parents would burst out laughing and say, 'You mean Bubba?'"

High school and college
Crosby was a star at baseball powerhouse Bellaire High School in Bellaire, Texas, from 1991 to 1995. He won a Texas 5-A sports state high school championship with Bellaire. His pitching coach was Ray Knoblach, father of major leaguer Chuck Knoblauch.

Crosby attended Rice University and played college baseball for the Rice Owls from 1996 to 1998. He earned All-American honors in 1997 and 1998. In 1998, he hit 25 home runs and drove in 91 runs in only 221 at bats, and batted .394 with a .504 on-base percentage and a .828 slugging percentage. He also had a 30-game hitting streak. He is the all-time Rice leader with 20 career triples, and 2nd with 59 home runs, 243 RBIs, 499 total bases, and a .737 slugging percentage, trailing only Lance Berkman in each category. In 2015, he was inducted into the Rice Athletics Hall of Fame.
