Descrizione PRINCE FIELDER
Prince Fielder plays first base for the Milwaukee Brewers. He is the son of former first baseman Cecil Fielder. Prince and Cecil are the only father-son combination in Major League Baseball (MLB) history to hit 50 home runs in a single season. Prince also holds the Brewers team record for home runs in a season, as well as the MLB record for youngest player to hit 50 home runs in a season. In four full MLB seasons, Prince has never hit fewer than 32 home runs. Prince has appeared in two All-Star Games and won the Home Run Derby in 2009. He signed a one-year, $15.5 million deal with the Brewers for the 2011 season. Prince will be a free agent after the 2011 season and will command one of the priciest contracts in MLB history, likely with a team other than the Brewers.
