Russ Ortiz developed a relationship with Christ after hearing about Him at Fellowship of Christian Athletes meetings in college. He was drafted as a pitcher for the San Francisco Giants and went on to an accomplished major league career with several teams. Surgery on his elbow was a wake up call reminding him of his first love—God. Now he focuses on others and runs a business whose proceeds help people in need. Russ says, “Those are things that will be there a lot longer than my stats.”
