SCF Birthday Contest #3

[andrewhoya]

Continuing the trend of the number 13, today's contest it a "Guess Who?" of players who have the number 13 related to them in some way. It could be them wearing 13, it could be the number of wins in a season, or the PPG of a player. Your job is to guess who each clue represents.

The first person to correctly guess each clue will win 75CC. So, if you guess 4 correct, you win 300CC. You are allowed one guess per player.

Player 1: This player was selected to 13 All Star games, matching his jersey number.
Player 2: This Pitt Panther graduate never won a championship, but is still regarded as one of the best at his position.
Player 3: Originally not number 13, he switched in 2004, and the very next year won an MVP award.
Player 4: This AC Milan player led Italy to a 2006 World Cup win.
Player 5: This player went from supermarket cashier to world champion.
Player 6: This player amassed a 67-62 record over a 16 year MLB career with 7 teams.
Player 7: This former Ohio State player stands at 6 feet 5 inches, and was born in February of 1996.
Player 8: This former player coached 4 all-star teams, most recently in 2009.
