Casey Daigle's Married Life With U.S. Softball Star Jennie Finch
Former MLB pitcher Casey Daigle, 37, is married to Jennie Finch. The duo tied the knot on 15th January 2005.
Finch was on the team that won the gold medal at the 2004 Olympics Games in Athens and a silver at the 2008 Games in Beijing. She was a dominant college softball pitcher and a three-time All-American at Arizona.
He was attracted towards the pretty girl pitching for the Wildcats. He always thought that it's the game played by burly and unattractive women. But Finch definitely changed his perception towards the game upon meeting his future wife.
He admitted,
"Needless to say, she was quite attractive and pretty good on the softball field."
Finch was already an established star whereas Daigle was still trying to make a mark in his profession. Despite such major difference, the couple managed to be intact.
Daigle said,
"There is no other way to put it. I will never be able to do what she's done in her sport."
The couple is living a happy family life with three adorable kids. They welcomed their first son, Ace Sane Daigle on 4th May 2006 in Tucson, Arizona; a year later they married.
They announced that they were expecting their second child together in January 2011. Their second son, Diesel Dean Daigle came on the earth on 19 June 2011.
The star couple welcomed their third child, Paisley Faye Daigle on 12 January 2013. Finch shared her excitement with People,
"We are so thrilled to announce the birth of our sweet baby girl. Thank y’all for all the sweet words and love. We are incredibly touched! Our hearts are overflowing."
She joked,
"Everyone is expecting something crazy and outrageous with having Ace and Diesel."
The couple has been enjoying their happy family life for 12 long years. We wish to see them together until the end.
