History

Background

Elijah is a fan favorite as well as a hero of the proletariat, having led the revolution that established the Sovereign Nation of Hawaii. He is renowned for stealing homes both on and off the blaseball field. Not only has Elijah stolen Fourth Base on multiple occasions during league play, but for every base he steals during a game, he also liberates a vacant mainlander vacation home and gives it to unhoused Hawaiians in need of good Vibes.

Sam and Solis' Passing

Elijah was notably upset by the sudden passing of Sam Solis while pitching against the Charleston Shoe Thieves. At the post-game cookout, when asked what he thought of the formal investigation calling Solis' passing "natural causes," his only reply was, "Is that they're calling it?" and walked away.

Season 5

Elijah had a career-defining season, finishing with the 2nd highest league batting average (0.355), 5th in doubles hit (20), 2nd in hits (128), and 2nd in on-base percentage (0.431), showcasing his abilities to keep innings alive for his team and avoid outs. After such a great season, Valenzuela was given the Golden Rainbow Award by the Hawai'i Fridays, recognizing him as team MVP. He attributed his success primarily to an abundance of good vibes from his teammates and the community, saying that he is "simply another man, lifted by, lifting for, and lifting with his neighbors."
