Today's guest is arguably one of the best one and done player in Titan Baseball history, Joe Fraser.
Fraser played just one year for Cal State Fullerton, that year... 1995, the year the Titans won their third national championship, defeating the University of Southern California 11-5 in the final game.
The 1995 Titans squad is widely considered the greatest college baseball team of all time going 57-9 and became the first No. 1 seed at Omaha to win the title. In that championship game, Fraser started at second base and went 1-for-4 and scored one of the 11 runs the Titans put up at Rosenblatt Stadium that day.
A Junior College transfer, Fraser played the 1995 season and was selected in the 27th round of the MLB Draft by the Minnesota Twins. During his one year on Fullerton's campus, he averaged .348, hit 7 home runs and drove in 46 runs.
