OC Metro: OC’s 40 Under 40 (Torii Hunter listed)

Via OC Metro Magazine

Torii Hunter, 32

Centerfielder, Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (laangels.com)

Brought over from the Minnesota Twins with a 5-year, $90 million contract, this 7-time Golden Glover has been recognized for his philanthropic endeavors, winning Major League Baseball’s Marvin Miller Man of the Year award last season. Hunter also founded the Torii Hunter Project, a youth baseball initiative that increases opportunities for young players, particularly in inner cities.

What he hopes to be doing in 10 years:

“I’d like to be spending more time with my family and doing TV work as a baseball analyst.

Torii on REAL Sports

Anyone see Torii’s piece on HBO’s REAL Sports with Bryant Gumbel last month? Just an awesome guy. (Torii, I mean, not Bryant.)

Yeah

Especially after tonite’s Angels Live. They had a segment “Hanging with Mr. Hunter”, wherein Torii tries to drive to the Big A for the first time.

Very funny.
