Hall of Fame Focus Story

One of the finest players in Rutgers baseball history, Todd Frazier was named consensus First Team All-America as a junior in 2007 and was the 34^th overall selection in the MLB Draft. Frazier earned unanimous Big East Player of the Year that season by helping the Scarlet Knights to 42 wins, tying the school record.

Frazier batted .520 (13-for-25) with three homers and seven RBIs in the Big East tournament held in Brooklyn to win the Jack Kaiser Award as MVP and lead Rutgers to an NCAA Regional berth.
The two-time First Team All-Big East honoree finished as the Scarlet Knights' all-time leader in home runs (42) and runs scored (210), second in walks (138) and total bases (434), third in hits (241), slugging percentage (.625) and stolen bases (65) and fifth in runs batted in (152) despite only playing three seasons.

Originally from Point Pleasant, New Jersey, Frazier previously starred on the Toms River East American Team that won the 1998 Little League World Series title.

He is in his ninth MLB season in 2019, winning the Home Run Derby in 2015.
