Also, there is a connection between Babe Ruth and Annabel Lee that I didn't notice at first. It's an interesting coincidence.

Great pick! Wasn't even thinking of Poe until the end.

Is the connection that there was a contemporaneous women's baseball player named Annabelle Lee?

I was waiting for someone to ask about the original work more. After Miss Marple and Gregor Samsa, my mind was on unconventional sources of characters.

No, but that is another very interesting coincidence. It's more of a connection to Poe than anything, but since Poe wrote Annabel Lee it's close enough. It's also not that strong of a connection, just an interesting coincidence I noticed.
