Vladimir Guerrero of the L.A. Angels is Not Ashamed of the Gospel—He Takes it with Him Wherever He Goes
"The man many American League pitchers dread most is, at heart, a God-fearing, Bible-toting mama's boy."
(Los Angeles, CA)—The best hitter for the L.A. Angels is a young Christian from the Dominican Republic named Vladimir Guerrero. He loves God, the Bible, and his family—so much so that he takes his Bible with him wherever he goes, including his games.

As a result, Mike Scioscia, Guerrero's manager, calls him "the most unassuming superstar I've ever seen."
Guerrero credits his mother, Altagracia Alvino, a woman of faith who struggled for years to raise her family single-handedly, with raising him to be the kind of man he is today.
