Cecil Grant Fielder (Born in Los Angeles, CA on September 21, 1963-) was one of Major League Baseball’s most powerful hitters throughout the 1980s and 1990s, hitting 51 home runs in 1990. He is the father of major leaguer Prince Fielder. The Baltimore Orioles chose Fielder in the 31st round of the 1981 amateur draft, but the future baseman opted not to sign with the team. The Kansas City Royals tapped Fielder in the 4th round of the 1982 amateur draft, trading him to the Toronto Blue Jays the following year. During his Big League years in Toronto (1985-1988), Fielder served as a part-time infielder, prompting his decision to sign with Hanshin Tigers (1989) in Japan. After the Detroit Tigers added Fielder to their roster, Fielder began to exhibit his immense talent, joining the 50 Home Run Club and making all three of his All-Star Game appearances while with the Tigers (1990-1996). Traded to the New York Yankees (1996-1997) midway through the 1996 season, Fielder became a key part to the Bronx Bombers’ World Series championship that season. He finished his playing days with the Anaheim Angels (1998) and Cleveland Indians (1998), retiring with a .255 batting average, 319 home runs, and 1,008 RBIs.
