Hiroto Wilcox
Hiroto Wilcox is a player for the Hades Tigers. A woman of few words, Hiroto Wilcox is the Hades Tiger's 'Ace in the Hole', as she is their strongest pitcher -- and also because she is asexual and lives in a hole she dug in left field, which no one is allowed into. At least three players from other teams have broken their leg tripping into the hole while fielding, but manager Fearful Symmetry has assured the press that it was, "probably their own fault," and that, "if they didn't want to break their legs, they shouldn't have stepped in the hole. I thought we were pretty clear about that." An anonymous member of the Pies informed the press that the hole has a leaf-strewn tarp over it to disguise the entrance, but both Symmetry and Wilcox deny this claim.
When asked why she had chosen to live in a hole in Sixth Circle Stadium, Wilcox only responded that, "The rent was cheap," before stepping into the hole and disappearing where reporters couldn't follow. Hiroto was later observed dragging a bear trap into the hole in the dead of night.
Occasionally during a game, a ball will be hit into the hole. When this happens, brightly-colored lights and ringing sounds akin to those of a pinball table occur, and the ball is sent flying out into the air a few seconds later. The mechanism by which this occurs is unclear and Hiroto has refused to elaborate. Umpires have ruled that if a ball enters the hole directly without touching the ground first, it is still considered in flight on popping back out as nobody saw it touch the ground. This usually results in an easy out for the Tigers.
