An 8-time Gold Glove winner, he was a member of the 2006 World Series Champions (Cardinals)

James Patrick Edmonds, born on June 27, 1970, is a former professional baseball center fielder who made a significant impact in Major League Baseball (MLB) during his career from 1993 to 2010. Known for his exceptional defensive skills, Edmonds earned eight Gold Glove Awards, solidifying his reputation as one of the best defensive outfielders of his era. His ability to make spectacular catches in the outfield, often diving or leaping to rob hitters of extra-base hits, made him a fan favorite and a highlight-reel regular. Edmonds played for several teams, including the California/Anaheim Angels, St. Louis Cardinals, San Diego Padres, Chicago Cubs, Milwaukee Brewers, and Cincinnati Reds.

In addition to his defensive prowess, Edmonds was also a formidable offensive player. Over the course of his career, he posted a .284 batting average, hit 393 home runs, and maintained an impressive on-base plus slugging percentage (OPS) of .903. His combination of power and consistency at the plate made him a key contributor to his teams' success, particularly during his time with the St. Louis Cardinals, where he became a beloved figure among fans. Edmonds was known for his clutch performances in critical moments, including the postseason, where he helped the Cardinals reach the World Series in 2004 and win it in 2006.

Edmonds' career was marked by numerous accolades and achievements, including multiple All-Star selections and his eight Gold Glove Awards. His ability to excel both offensively and defensively made him one of the most well-rounded players of his generation. He was particularly known for his leadership on the field and his ability to inspire teammates with his work ethic and dedication to the game. After retiring from professional baseball, Edmonds transitioned into broadcasting, where he currently serves as a broadcaster for Bally Sports Midwest, providing insightful commentary and analysis for Cardinals games.
