I am blessed to be chosen to play in the all star game 2025, I want to thank my former coaches @BobbyBehnsch who taught me so much about what I know as a person and as a player, @COACHAGII who supported me so much and Jonathan Banda for trust in me all season. 🙏🏻⚾️
Fernando Valenzuela is the most successful Mexican-born pitcher in MLB history.
He ranks first among his countrymen in wins (173) and strikeouts (2,074) and was a 6-time All-Star in his 17 Major League seasons.
In 1981 “Fernandomania” swept the baseball world as Valenzuela won the NL Rookie of the Year and Cy Young Awards.
OTD in 1981, Valenzuela earned the first of his three wins in that postseason run that ended with the Dodgers winning their fourth World Series championship in Los Angeles. #HHM
