How Fernando drew thousands of extra fans

“I truly believe," legendary Dodgers broadcaster Jaime Jarrín once said, "that there is no other player in Major League history who created more new fans than Fernando Valenzuela. Sandy Koufax, Don Drysdale, Joe DiMaggio, even Babe Ruth did not. Fernando turned so many people from Mexico, Central America, South America

Fernandomania was the biggest baseball sensation I’ve seen until Ohtani arrived, maybe bigger than Ohtani. You probably had to be around then to understand fully the impact. I saw him pitch at Dodger Stadium during the height of the frenzy. Amazing.
