The girlfriend of late Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez had a baby girl on Friday evening.
Few details are known, but according to Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald, Maria Arias delivered the child she had with Fernandez, a baby girl named Penelope. Fernandez himself picked the name back in August when he learned that he was going to be having a girl.
No information on height or weight was available, but there were no indications of any problems.
