Nate Schierholtz is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on February 15, 1984 in Reno, Nevada, United States. Schierholtz was conceived in Reno, Nevada on February 15, 1984. His parents were Vai Sr. and Karen Schierholtz. He was the oldest of their four children (Cainan, Vai Jr., and Sophia). He attended San Ramon Valley High School, Danville, California. This high school was also where he met his future San Francisco Giants teammate, Randy Winn. He was the team captain at San Ramon Valley. After high school, Schierholtz was a Chabot College player, a Hayward community college. He played at third base during the 2003 season for Chabot College. He was named All-American in his one season at Chabot.
Schierholtz was a San Jose right fielder who remained there in 2005. He batted.319 in 128 games (fifth in California League), with 160 hits (tied for fifth with Clay Timpner, Seth Smith and Clay Timpner), 37 doubles (tied for eighth with Danny Putnam), eight triples, (tied for third with Timpner’s 12 & Anthony Webster’s 11), and 15 home runs. He hit.333 in the playoffs to help San Jose win the California League title.
Giants’ manager Bruce Bochy considered calling up Schierholtz in May 2007 when Dave Roberts started suffering elbow problems, but an injury to Schierholtz prevented that. On June 11, Schierholtz was called up to replace Dan Ortmeier and try to give the Giants some offensive help. He made his major league debut that day, against the Toronto Blue Jays as a defensive replacement. He got his first hit the next night, against A. J. Burnett in his first career at bat in a 3–2 victory over Toronto. During this stint, Schierholtz received most of the starts in right field. On June 23, at AT&T Park against the New York Yankees, he blooped an RBI single into center field against Scott Proctor in the bottom of the 13th inning to win the game 6–5 for the Giants. Despite a .325 batting average in 40 at bats, Schierholtz was sent down at the start of July to make room for Rich Aurilia, who was returning from the disabled list. He was recalled in September, and he received most of the starts in right field that month. In 39 games (112 at bats), he batted .304 with 34 hits, five doubles, three triples, 10 RBI, and two walks.
Schierholtz was again called up in September 2008, as the Giants’ roster expanded, and he was used as the Giants’ starting right fielder for the remainder of the year. On September 3, he recorded four hits in a game for the first time in a 9–2 victory over the Colorado Rockies. Three days later, he hit his first career home run against Jesse Chavez in a 7–6 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. In 19 games (75 at bats) in 2008, Schierholtz hit .320 with 24 hits, eight doubles, one triple, one home run, and five RBI.
In 2003, Schierholtz was a second round draft pick for the Giants from Chabot College. In 2007, Schierholtz reached the major leagues, batting more than.300 in a limited amount of time. Although he spent the majority of 2008 in minor leagues, he hit over.300 in September when he was called up to the major leagues. Schierholtz represented the United States of America in the Summer Olympics of that year. He spent the entire 2009 season with the Giants and appeared in more than 100 games. He also got starts in right field. Schierholtz was Giants’ right fielder starting for a portion of 2010, but he ended the year as a defense substitution for Pat Burrell. His first World Series victory was against the Texas Rangers, his first title in 56 years. He was the Giants’ right fielder until August, when he suffered a broken foot. In July, Schierholtz stated that he was not considered an everyday right fielder by Bruce Bochy, Giants manager. He was traded to Philadelphia shortly thereafter, where he completed the year. For his contributions, the Giants awarded him a World Series Ring.
