All of my idols have appeared on a video game cover, and now to have that same opportunity is truly an unbelievable feeling,” said Fielder. “I’ve been playing baseball video games for as long as I can remember.

So it’s only appropriate that 2K Sports has tapped Prince Fielder, All-Star first baseman for the Milwaukee Brewers (and brawny home run machine), to be the coverboy for their upcoming arcade baseball title, The BIGS 2.įielder is known for his power: in 2007, at age 23, he became the youngest player in MLB history to reach the 50-homer mark. Specifically, I’m referring to towering blasts that leave stadiums and smash lights, à la The Natural. Arcade sports games are all about bombastic spectacle - basketball players soaring twenty feet in the air for a dunk, hits so vicious that helmets are knocked off - and in baseball, that means home runs.
