Alyssa Milano has touched more bases in her lifetime than Alex Rodriguez... if you know what we mean!
We mean this actress has dated a number of professional baseball players and probably had sex with all of them.
But Milano's naked time on the diamond may be coming to an end, as she told Details magazine in its November issue.
"I'd love to just find a good plumber or doctor," the 34-year-old star told the publication.
After dating Major League pitchers, Carl Pavano, Barry Zito and Brad Penny, Milano is ready to allow a different profession to test her strike zone a bit.
Of course, this doesn't mean she's happy with the flak she's received in the past.
"I've gotten such s--- about my dating choices," Alyssa said. "Like, every single article ... is about how I'm 'the chick that dates athletes,' and there's an insane double standard going on."
Specifically, the actress points to New York Yankees star Derek Jeter getting away with dating hot celebrity after hot celebrity, with no recourse, on her blog on MLB.com. Most recently, this clutch shortstop has been linked to Gabrielle Union.
Fortunately for Milano, it does appear as though she can be linked with anyone she wants at least.
"My friend tells me, 'Every time I mention you in front of guys, they all go nuts.' So he asked one of them, 'What is it about her? Can you define it?' And the guy said, 'She's the girl we never got over,'" she said.
In other words: she's really hot.

Stating that a professional baseball player serially dating celebrity actresses is equivalent to a celebrity actress serially dating professional baseball players, can hardly be disputed, but is of course hardly a justification of one or the other. Perhaps Ms. Milano should simply date Derek Jeter and short circuit the entire argument. But how can we judge these people for cherry picking their mates when we create a culture of celebrity all about them that diefies them, embues them with a sense of entitlement, glorifies them, and generally instills in them the notion that they are above the rest of us, then criticize them for acting as if they were? Perhaps the real solution is to simply stop making demi-gods out of actresses and professional baseball players. Like that's ever going to happen. This behavior is probably as old as man.
To me, though, the really specious thing about this criticism is that presumably the rest of us common, but somehow morally superior, huddled masses would pass at the chance to date a string of celebrity actresses. "No, I'm sorry, Ms. Milano. I don't want to date you. I think it would be shallow and vacuous on my part to choose you simply because of your godlike celebrity status..."
I'm sure Marilyn Monroe and Joe Dimaggio are both looking down on this with bemusement.
