J. R. House is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on November 11, 1979 in Charleston, Charleston, United States. James Rodger “J. R.” House (born November 11, 1979) is an American former professional baseball catcher and current third base coach for the Cincinnati Reds of Major League Baseball (MLB).

House was plagued by illness and injuries during his time in the Pittsburgh Pirates’ organization. He missed a month of the 2000 season due to mononucleosis. In 2001, he was twice on the disabled list with bruised ribs. A year later, he had surgery three times – for an abdominal hernia, a torn muscle and Tommy John surgery. He was limited to 35 games in 2002 and 41 in 2003.

Additionally, his throwing ability was limited in 2004 by an injured right arm, requiring rotator cuff surgery. He was subsequently released by the Pirates.

After his baseball career apparently ended, House enrolled at West Virginia University, where he was the third-string quarterback for one season. In 2005, House completed 2 of 4 passes for 38 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. He also had 2 rushes for 16 yards with a long of 13 yards and no touchdowns.

A two-sport star in baseball and football in high school, House pursued a professional baseball career after being selected by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the 5th round of the 1999 amateur draft. House left baseball for one year in 2005 to try college football. He enrolled at West Virginia University and made the team as a backup quarterback, but returned to professional baseball after playing sparingly for the Mountaineers.
