All are from Southern California, except Aspromonte. All the others, in fact, I think are from the greater Los Angeles area. I'd guess Strawberry, but I don't know how that would include Aspromonte. And I'm sure there's a pile of other Mets from greater LA.

Everyone except Snider has a first name that starts with a B and a last name that starts with a vowel. The sequence presented isn't at all chronological, so I really have no idea.

Good one. I knew it had to do with initials but couldn't quite crack the code.
