CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — The daughter of MLB Hall of Fame pitcher Dennis Eckersley has been reunited with her son as she awaits trial on reckless conduct and other charges after she gave birth in a tent in subfreezing temperatures. Twenty-seven-year-old Alexandra Eckersley showed up last week for a court hearing on her case in Manchester with her son, who was born on Dec. 26, 2022. Her attorney, Kim Kossick, said the two were reunited earlier this year and live with the woman’s mother in Massachusetts. She pleaded not guilty to charges of assault, reckless conduct, and other counts, and was released on bail. She faces trial in July.
