Jonah Vredenburg

In the valley heat of Fresno, Jonah Vredenburg hit baseballs farther than anyone the league had seen. A broad-shouldered first baseman, he treated batting practice like a home-run derby and carried that fearlessness into games.

For all the power, he was a thoughtful hitter who studied pitchers and rarely chased out of the zone. When he connected, the sound alone told the crowd to stand.

The Foxes built their identity around his bat, and the record books still carry his name at the top of the power categories.
