Matthew Riordan

Your father's favorite Moby Dick. An original, a grinder, the heart and soul. Dubbed by his fans as "The Iceman" Matty was Melville's original starting pitcher, taking the ball bravely through a turbulent conception of the club. He has since played mainly as a catcher, and since being put in the leadoff spot in the summer of 2025, he has never given the role up and continues to lead by example and positivity. The best contact hitter in Melville Moby Dick's history, his efforts in the club's inaugural season on the mound, at the plate and in field named him the first recipient of the Dan Michael's Teammate Award.
