Javier Baez is a Puerto Rican professional baseball shortstop for the Detroit Tigers of Major League Baseball (MLB). He previously played in MLB for the Chicago Cubs and New York Mets.
A native of Puerto Rico, Báez and his family relocated to Florida in 2005 with his mother and three siblings. His sister Noely, who was born with spina bifida, would benefit from the move.
Angel Luis Báez, Javier’s father, introduced him and his two brothers, Gadiel and Rolando, to baseball when Javier was ten years old in Puerto Rico. Báez had a significant impact on Javier’s life and sparked his interest in the sport.
Major League Baseball’s emblem was etched into their skin as a reminder that the sport has always been a part of their life.
A lack of proficiency in English as a second language made it difficult for Báez to adjust to his new environment as a middle school student.
It took three years for Báez to master the language by trial and error, memorizing words before learning their actual meanings.
