Place of birth
editSources disagree on Carpenter's place of birth. ESPN and his MLB page (as well as the MiLB website, who take their data from MLB) list his place of birth as Fairfield, California, but Baseball-Reference (and Retrosheet, since that's where the data comes from) and Yahoo! Sports say Grants Pass, Oregon. I've removed the information from the page proper to avoid edit wars while discussion occurs and to hopefully put aside any potential problems. — KV5 • Talk • 16:35, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
- More sources: Baseball-Almanac and Comcast Bay Area say Grants Pass, and Scout.com says West Covina, CA. CBS Sports and Philadelphia Sports Daily both say Fairfield. — KV5 • Talk • 16:40, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
- MLB and ESPN both say Grant's Pass now... so i guess its safe to put that in. Spanneraol (talk) 14:44, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
