Yoenis Cespedes of Cuba, or 33ba (CU = 33) |
Yoenis Céspedes Milanés (born October 18, 1985) is a Cuban professional baseball outfielder with the Oakland Athletics of Major League Baseball in the United States. Before joining the Major Leagues, he played in the Cuban National Series and was a member of the Cuba national baseball team. He won the 2013 Home Run Derby.
Céspedes is the son of Estela Milanés, a softball pitcher who appeared in the 2000 Summer Olympics for Cuba,[1][2][3] and Cresencio Céspedes, a former Cuban League catcher who separated from Milanés when Yoenis was one year old.[4] At age 10, as his talent became more apparent, he was sent by his mother to a state-run school where he could focus on baseball.[4]Yoenis Cespedes is also someone with "33" name numerology.
- Yoenis = 7+6+5+5+9+1 = 33
- Cespedes = 3
+5+1+7+5+4+5+1 = 31 - The ranging degrees of Masonry are 31 to 33
- Masonry= 4+1+1+6+5+9+7 = 33
- October = 6+3+2+6+2+5+9 = 33
- 10/18/1985 = 1+0+1+8+1+9+8+5 = 33
Although Cespedes is nearly thirty-years old, he has only been in the MLB since 2012 because he is a recent defector from Cuba. Courtesy of Wikipedia, here is information pertaining to his entrance into the league.
Céspedes defected from Cuba in the summer of 2011, landing in the Dominican Republic with ten of his family members.[10][11][4] He established residency in the country in January 2012, bypassing the MLB draft and becoming an unrestricted free agent.[12] Céspedes was considered a five-tool outfielder going into free agency. Kevin Goldstein of Baseball Prospectus declared Céspedes "arguably the best all-around player to come out of Cuba in a generation."[13]Did you see the name "Coco Crisp" above? I've always thought his name was a sad joke, along with Milton Bradley's (both of these men are major league baseball players). Maybe I'm wrong.
After interest from numerous Major League teams, Cespedes agreed to a 4-year, $36 million contract with the Oakland Athletics on February 13, 2012, with the deal becoming official the following month.[14]
2012 season[edit]
Cespedes began the 2012 season for the A's at his usual position of center field, but was later moved to left field upon the return of veteran center fielder Coco Crisp. On March 28, in his major league debut, he went 1 for 3, and was also hit by a pitch.[15] The following day, he hit his first major league home run, a 2-run shot off of Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Shawn Kelley.[16] Cespedes had hit his first walk-off home run on June 21 against the Los Angeles Dodgers with the final score of 4–1, resulting in a three game sweep. The Athletics would go on to win the American League West, with Céspedes batting .316 with a .381 OBP in the postseason.
2013 season[edit]
On July 15, 2013, Céspedes won the 2013 Home Run Derby. A last-minute addition by team captain Robinson Cano to represent the American League squad, he hit 32 home runs total in the exhibition, including 17 in the first round. He defeated the National League's Bryce Harper in the final round by hitting 9 home runs, with five swings to spare. He was the first winner of the contest who had not been selected to that year's All-Star game.
- Coco = 3+6+3+6 = 18
- Crisp = 3+9+9+1+7 = 29
- Coco Crisp = 18+29 = 47
- MGM = 13+7+13 = 33
- Howard = 8+6+5+1+9+4 = 33
- The year 1933, or '33
Sorry to be so tangential, but like Chief 113 said on March 11, all things are connected.
