[edit] Rich Guardino
I am also nominating the following related pages because same person and content:
Possible hoax or semi-subtle attack pages with same content and creator. I cannot find verifiable references, though conceivably that is due to the age and college/minor league nature. Parts seem dubious, but organizations mentioned do or did exist. There are archival references to San Jose baseball Rich Guardino playing 1974-1977 as Hall of Fame inductee in 1997, versus the article's claimed playspan of 1966-1968 and induction in 2004. One claim is clearly inaccurate: the Little Falls Mets existed from 1977-1988, so Guardino could not have spent 1969-1971 there. On the WP roundup, fails WP:RS, WP:V, and WP:BLP.

- Delete per WP:BASEBALL - as he never made it to the major leagues. While he did have a decent college career, lack of any national level recognition makes it hard to keep this article Corpx 02:31, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete No indication that he has played for the Mets or another MLB or pro club.--JForget 01:20, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
