On Day 54 of the second ILB season, in a post-game interview following Los Angeles Tacos @ Chicago Firefighters, Rosa elaborated on her stance towards the splort of blaseball. When asked why she attempted to steal third base despite the Fighters being up by 15 runs, Rosa claimed that "Blaseball is awful, and I hate playing it. I hate that I am forced to step onto the field every day and play this horrible splort. The only enjoyment I get from blaseball is crushing my opponents, and making them feel the same pain as me."

History

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

On Season 2, Day 54, in a post-game interview following an home game against the Los Angeles Tacos, Rosa elaborated on her stance towards the splort of blaseball. When asked why she attempted to steal third base despite the Fighters being up by 15 runs, Rosa claimed that "Blaseball is awful, and I hate playing it. I hate that I am forced to step onto the field every day and play this horrible splort. The only enjoyment I get from blaseball is crushing my opponents, and making them feel the same pain as me."

Rosa "pitches" by tossing a blaseball up in into the air and swinging at it with her blaseball axe, hitting a line drive towards the plate. When asked why she chose this unusual pitching style in a post-game interview, Rosa claimed that it was fueled by "spite." Having been trained as a batter and not actually knowing how to pitch a blaseball is, apparently, a secondary concern.

A mangled photograph of Spies player Son Scotch is hung inside her locker, and Rosa is often seen staring malevolently at it in the moments before a game.

Every year, the team dyes Rosa green in honor of the Firefighters. Why the color green is used is unknown.

Rosa is considered a trans icon and a State fielder.

Like all of us, she is from Chicago. Her jersey number is 331.
