Lore

Alexandria Crossing was originally the traffic light suspended at the intersection between Alexandria and Symmes by the Monmouth County Library in Manalapan Township, New Jersey. They had a long and thankless career, ignored as a meaningless light at the border of a residential area, and frustration built slowly but steadily over years. Eventually, one motorist blowing their red light was the final straw-- they spontaneously grew legs, kicked their way off their mounting, and displayed crude symbols via their lights to all witnesses present (just the one motorist) before fleeing the scene. By the time they stumbled their way into Stockton, neither their rage, their impolite methods of communication, or their desire to kick inanimate objects had subsided at all, but they were at least passingly interested in blaseball. (This can be chalked up to other Gardens players showing them how to use a bat to hit things, to their evident delight.)

Crossing, or 'AleX', as they prefer their name stylized, is very successful at communication despite having no ability to vocalize or actual arms. The traffic lights they used to shape into arrows can now be shaped into letters and emoji, though they have a preference for the latter. How they are able to hold a bat and glove with their "hand" pictograph is yet undetermined, and nobody really wants to ask any questions.

Trivia

  • AleX's jersey number is 39.
  • It is presumed that AleX expresses a preferred coffee style purely out of contrarian spite.
