Former MLB All-Star James Shields, known as “Big Game James,” and his wife, photographer Ryane Shields, are listing their custom-built Rancho Santa Fe estate for $23 million.

The couple spent years designing and constructing the home after purchasing the land in 2019 for $1.8 million, drawn to it by its unique baseball diamond-shaped lot.

Built from the ground up over three years, the property reflects a highly intentional approach to design, blending architecture, wellness, and performance into a single private compound just north of San Diego.
