More Best Years

I added the second paragraph of Best Years. I got the information off a baseball card. Please add more if you can. And can someone add Vaughn's picture in the article, it looks kind of empty without a picture of him.--RyRy5 (talk) 02:32, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Angels in the Outfield

I'm inclined to remove the claim that a character in Angels in the Outfield is based on Vaughn. (a) Most importantly: it's unsourced. (b) The film was released in 1994, 3 years before Disney bought the Angels and 5 years before Vaughn signed with the Angels. (c) The 1994 film is based on an earlier film from the fifties, well before Vaughn was even born.

Obviously, none of this makes it impossible for a character in the film to have been based on Vaughn. If anyone has any information supporting this claim please respond, but otherwise, I think it should be removed for lack of verifiability. Nsfreeman (talk) 14:46, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Veganism

The claim that Vaughn is a vegan was unreferenced and I couldn't find anything to back it up, so I removed it. Colinclarksmith (talk) 15:09, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

High school baseball

"Vaughn played high school baseball at New Canaan Country School" - the school is a K-9... how'd he play high school baseball there? Best, Markvs88 (talk) 03:15, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mo Vaughn was a three-letter (football, basketball, baseball) athlete at Trinity Pawling School (Pawling, NY) during his sophomore year. I was a post-grad there during his sophomore year and can confirm his enrollment there. (184.77.139.120 (talk) 02:10, 3 May 2012 (UTC))[reply]
