Meet Our Team

Hi! Im Lory Ankiel. Thank you so much for being here! I’ve been in Baseball since 2005 when my then boyfriend, Rick was a pitcher with the St Louis Cardinals. Within weeks of us dating, he decided to change positions to become an outfielder and a crash course in baseball life was upon me. By 2010 we had been married a few years and he got traded for the first time. I was newly pregnant and we had our 2 dogs with us. As you know, the guys leave immediately so I was left behind to pack everything up and get us moved ASAP, the only problem was I was clueless about our new city! I had an idea. What if we could put all the info a player or family needed when they are traded or sign with a new team in one place? And OurBaseballLife.com was born. Our Resource Guide is our private baseball community and together with Paige and Alysa by my side, we are building a one stop shop for all you need to navigate our unique lifestyle! Please feel free to reach out to me anytime at Lory@OurBaseballLife.com. Welcome!

My name is Alysa Bajenaru and I have been in professional baseball since the summer of 2000 when my brand new boyfriend signed with the Chicago White Sox. That boyfriend became my husband, and 19 years later we are still in the game. We have two well-traveled kids and have experienced every level of baseball on the playing and now coaching end of the game. Through it all, the thing we love most about life in baseball is the people. In this unstable rollercoaster life, friends quickly become family because who else really understands? 

As someone who has spent her entire adult life in this game, my mission is to connect, inspire, and empower families in baseball by providing a platform to share stories, advice, and encouragement. And let’s be honest, it is also nice to give people a glimpse into the real life of pro baseball WAGS to prove that it’s not as glamorous, or as dramatic, as what you might see on TV. 

My name is Paige Murphy. I have been in professional baseball since 2004 when I started dating my husband of 13 years.  We have two amazing kids who have become my most favorite little travel companions.  As a family we have lived in countless Minor and Major League cities; navigating the ups, downs, ins and outs of this thing we lovingly call "baseball life".  Some of our closest friends were made throughout our many years of baseball and we have loved every second of this unique experience.  

I love being a part of a brand that gives back to the community who shaped, supported and held me up through all of my adult years.  I hope to be able to help bring positive light to this strong group of women and their families, who have taught me so much about love, respect, and how to be a real friend in this game.
