Freddy Rodriguez (born January 17, 1975) is a Puerto Rican-American actor known for playing sensitive Hector Federico "Rico" Diaz on HBO's Six Feet Under and El Wray in the 2007 movie Planet Terror. Currently, he is a regular cast member on the series Ugly Betty.
Fernando Pedro Rodríguez Borrego (born April 29, 1924 in Havana, Cuba) is a former pitcher in Major League Baseball who played for the Chicago Cubs (1958) and Philadelphia Phillies (1959). Listed at 6'0. 180 lb., he batted and threw right-handed.
The memory of Rodriguez's undistinguished career would be revived every spring in the 1960s and 1970s when Chicago columnist Mike Royko would offer his "Cubs Quiz" http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/specials/chi-baseball-royko-quiz,1,2180394.triviaquiz?coll=cs-cubs-utility about obscure players and facts, which was typically the same quiz every year. He made fun of Rodriguez for wearing a large golden earring, an unusual practice in the 1950s. He also pointed out that "Rodriguez was undefeated in his rookie season (at age 38). He also failed to win a game." Rodriguez, in fact, played seven games for the Cubs and one for the Phillies, with a large overall ERA of 8.68, and did not have a decision.
