Is Fernando Valenzuela the icon of Mexican sports?

On November 1, 1960, the small village of Etchohuaquila, Sonora, Valenzuela was visited by the elderly lecturers Hermanos and were born 13 years ago. At 18 years old, under the attention of Dodgers talent Mike Brito, I didn't think I had a sports betting plan right now.

Valenzuela's major league debut came on April 9, 1981, when she made her debut as the starting pitcher in the Los Angeles Dodgers' opener. That year he met his team when he was named the new annual winner and won the Cy Young trophy, culminating with a victory in the Serie Mundial over the New York Yankees. It was the beginning of “Fernandomania,” a phenomenon that resonated in Mexico as well as the United States.

Valenzuela wasn't alone in being brilliant on the field, although she was also converted into a speaker for the Mexican community abroad, represented by her three. Along with other athletes such as Hugo Sánchez and Julio César Chávez, “El Toro” was one of the dropouts who were fanatics among the friends of Río Bravo. A total of 11 times with the Dodgers, a total of two Series Worlds and five selected events for the All-Star Game.

After consulting with his legate, the Ayuntamiento de Los Angeles announced on August 11, as “Fernando Valenzuela Day” in 2023, that the Dodgers would retire at number 34, which would start with Orgul. Since 1997, Valenzuela has continued his career in the big leagues and has become an admirer of Mexican culture in the sports and demonstration scene, which also has an inevitable impact on social media.
