Hobby is spending time with his family: Fernandez has four
sons and a daughter.
Favorite sports announcers are Tony Kubek and Billy Berroa: Kubek was a Blue Jays announcer when Fernandez was with the team; Berroa announced MLB games in the Dominican Republic.
Favorite player as a kid was Rod Carew: Fernandez based his swing on Carew’s.
Most prized possession is his Bible: Kubek had criticized Fernandez for talking about God in interviews.
Might have been a doctor if he hadn’t been an athlete: Fernandez did not go into medicine after his playing career.
Pet peeve is lying: Pretty standard answer.
Where he is now: His Tony Fernandez Foundation works with underprivileged and troubled children.

This is one of my favorite sets from the 90s.
