Brian Gonzalez was born on October 25th, 1995 to Albert and Iris Gonzalez. Brian and his parents along with his sister’s Amanda and Samantha currently live in Miramar, Florida. Known as “Big B” to his teammates Brian stands at a beastly 6’2” feet tall and 215 lbs. Brian played first base and pitcher for the 13U SF Extreme in 2009 and will play for the 14U Miramar Canes this fall and into the 2010 spring season. “Big B” is one of the main reasons the SF Extreme finished No. 18 in the final regular season TravelBallSelect rankings. In 92 games for the Extreme, he hit 11 homeruns, 23 doubles and drove in 87 runs. Brian was equally dominant on the mound posting a 13-4 record with 7 saves holding opposing batters to a miniscule .136 batting average and a 3.00 ERA. The Miramar Canes are getting a sure handed first baseman, a big stick from the left side and a shut down pitcher from the left side.

We met up with Brian at the Elite 32 World Series and here’s what he had to say:

“My favorite Major League Baseball Player is C.C. Sabathia because we are both big, power left-handed pitchers and he plays for my favorite Major League team the New York Yankees.” Brian’s favorite food is bacon and his favorite movie is the newest Batman movie The Dark Knight. “When I’m not playing baseball, I enjoy playing basketball and football.” Brian says the SF Extreme’s rival team is the Broward Red Dogs. His most memorable baseball moment was striking out 14 P.C. Vipers in a semi-final game at Cooperstown in 2008. “My biggest fan is my dad because he always wants me to do my best but most importantly have fun.” Brian’s best asset to his Extreme squad is his leadership abilities; it looks as though the Miramar Canes have just brought a great leader to their team. His favorite college team is the Miami Hurricanes and he in five years “Big B” sees himself playing college baseball.

TravelBallSelect is thankful to have had the opportunity to visit with Brian and wish him and his Miramar Canes teammates the best next season. And the next time you see Brian at the park, tell him that you read about “Big B” on TBS.
