Manny Machado was born on July 6, 1992, in Hialeah, Florida. He is an American professional baseball player and is widely regarded for his success at a relatively young age. By his early twenties, Machado had already made a significant impact in Major League Baseball (MLB), drawing attention for both his skill and composure on the field.
Machado was raised in Miami by his mother, Rosa Machado, a single parent, and his uncle, Geovanny Brito, who played a significant role in his upbringing. He attended Brito Miami Private School and graduated high school in 2010. From a young age, Machado showed a strong interest in sports, particularly baseball. Before becoming a professional, he played on the U.S. under-18 baseball team.
After signing his first professional contract with the Baltimore Orioles, Machado made his minor league debut on August 27, 2010, in the Gulf Coast League. He advanced quickly through the minor system and made his MLB debut in 2012. In 2013, he solidified his place in the American League and gained widespread recognition for his defensive skills and offensive contributions. Standing at 6'2", he bats and throws right-handed and is especially known for his prowess at third base and shortstop positions.
In 2013, Machado suffered a serious knee injury while playing, requiring surgery. He underwent reconstructive surgery to prevent future dislocations and was sidelined for several months. Despite the setback, Machado made a strong recovery and returned in 2015 with impressive performance levels. That year, he hit 30 doubles and 35 home runs, an improvement from his 2013 season in which he recorded 51 doubles and 14 home runs.
