Aaron Lehr
Aaron was born in Cincinnati and raised in the east side suburb of Anderson Township. A Miami University graduate with degrees in math/stats and mass communication, Aaron has found a way to utilize both disciplines by making objective statistical analysis a focus in his writing. Despite being born to a Dodger fan, the 1990 Reds won the heart of this seven-year-old, and he’s never looked back. Aaron currently resides in Chicago’s Wrigleyville neighborhood, a mere half mile away from enemy territory. Though he appreciates the charm of century-old stadia, Aaron cheers as vociferously as ever when his Cincinnati baseball team comes to town.
