Offense comes alive for Brewers in series finale with Mariners

Offense comes alive for Brewers in series finale with Mariners

When it comes to going yard, Fielder was a king for the Brewers during his seven seasons with the franchise. The 5-foot-11, 275-pound Fielder, son of famed former pro Cecil Fielder, was a wrecking ball of fury at the plate and quickly established his own identity. In 2006, Fielder was tops for all rookies and broke a Brewers rookie record with 28 home runs. The following season, the 23-year-old Fielder erupted for 50 home runs to set a single-season franchise record that was previously held by Richie Sexton (twice) and Gorman Thomas (45).
