Biographical Information

COMMUNITY REPORTS
The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.

Jaxon Buckley (they/he) was born the fifth child of a large family in Hackensack, New Jersey. Suffering badly from middle child syndrome from being wedged solidly in the middle of eight siblings, young Jaxon dreamed of standing out. Obsessed with hlorses, the old west, and cowboy poets, Jaxon fantasized of becoming a cowpoke poet themselves.

Displaying a modicum of athletic talent in college, Jaxon was recruited by the Trenton Centrists, where they spent several years refining their cowpoke aesthetic and serving as the team’s poet laureate. Jaxon’s focus on the poetry and hlorseriding aspects of their life, combined with their fierce commitment to economic justice, rendered them largely a benchwarmer, until a tragic riding accident cost them their arms.

While in the hospital, a mysterious and anonymous benefactor sponsored Jaxon to receive a new set of experimental prosthetics. Jaxon’s new metal arms proved a crowd draw at Centrists games, and when the sudden incineration of Mickey Woods Woods left a hole in the Philly Pies roster, Jaxon was called up.

Since moving to Philly, Jaxon has taken the opportunity to join up with the Urban Rliders, a city-based hlorse-riding/cowpoke organization. This community of cowpokes finally gives Jaxon the fellowship they’ve sought for so long, even as they try eagerly to win over the hearts of the grieving Philly flans.

Trivia

  • Chews cinnamon bark like tobacco. Frequent spitter.
  • Rides their hlorse Fl’tch’r up to the plate. Greets umpires and catchers with a friendly, "Howdy!"
  • Wears a cowboy hat, vest, and chaps at all times. Over the uniform. Hat goes under the helmet when batting.
  • Prone to breaking out a guitar and singing cowpoke poems to anyone who will listen.
  • Staunch socialist.
  • Jaxon insists on riding Fl’tch’r when running the bases. This is not as much an advantage as it might seem as Fl’tch’r is surprisingly slow and Jaxon loses precious time having to mount up after getting a hit.
  • Fl'tch'r seems to be absolutely terrified of Pies player Summers Pony and quickly flees at the mere sight of them.
