Alan Ashby is the #8 hitter and starting catcher for Houston on the NES version of RBI. He is one of the worst players in the game, and almost never sees an at-bat from any serious player. His weak bat and lack of contact have earned him the nickname "Bag O' Assby" by RBI players around the world (including Canada). Alan Ashby is special to this site. He comes up more often than any other subject when you choose "random page".
