All of the players named to the Miami baseball program’s all-time team had an impact on the program. Several were a part of the Hurricanes four national championships. On the “team” are All-Americans, players who became successful major leaguers and an eventual World Series winning manager.
The team did not name a coach. Any discussion of the Miami baseball program has to begin with the godfather on the Miami diamond Ron Fraser. Fraser was the sixth Miami baseball coach but its most important. Before Fraser’s arrival in Coral Gables, the Hurricanes had never been to a College World Series or NCAA Tournament.
