Meet the Legend
Ryan Klesko grew up in Orange County California with the same dreams of thousands of other young boys around the United States with hopes of some day being a Major League baseball player. His dreams came true right out of high school. Being called up to the "show" became reality and the big league slugger went on a roll from there by winning a World Series title in 1995 with the Atlanta Braves. His career also took him to stints with the Giants and Padres before choosing to retire in 2008.
His passion for children and the outdoors led him to be the founder of his charity www.bluerynofoundation.org which helps families with terminally ill children. Using his contacts from being a MLB player for over a decade has helped Ryan bring awareness of these children with many outdoor companies and celebrities.
Ryan is the co-host of Hardcore Hunting TV which donates its proceeds to his charity. Ryan can be seen across the country hosting events, making appearances, and holding seminars. Ryan is married to his wife Kelly and they have a son.
