Joyce Gracie
My interest was piqued by a comment on the talk page here--I can't find any evidence of a Joyce Gracie playing baseball for the Yankees. Google searches for "Joyce Gracie" baseball & "Joyce Gracie" Yankees bring up no relevant hits, just Wiki mirrors. Additionally, Baseball-reference.com has no record of a Joyce Gracie, either...despite the claim that Gracie played in 4 major league games. I'm inclined to think this is a hoax--the author, User:Harpey, has only 1 edit (this article creation), and Joyce Gracie is apparently the name of a UFC fighter (as 66.189.236.47 pointed out). -- Scientizzle 22:28, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Comment The Brazilian mixed martial arts fighter is Royce Gracie, but it's pronounced "Hoyce" (or "Joyce," if you want to give the J an H sound). I'm guessing the article's author mixed this name up with whomever he meant to write about. --Alsayid 02:56, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clearing that up. -- Scientizzle 03:05, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect, then, as a plausible search term. Stifle (talk) 12:20, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
