College
Conde enrolled at Vanderbilt University, and played college baseball for the Vanderbilt Commodores baseball team. He played as a third baseman as a freshman, but moved to shortstop as a sophomore due to an injury to Dansby Swanson. When Swanson returned from injury, he shifted to second base due to Conde's strong defense at shortstop.

Why this record matters
The phrase “american baseball player” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Biographical claims are most persuasive when dates, appointments and relationships can be traced to records created close to the events described. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 15, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q18637262. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1993, 2014, 2011 and 2013.
Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
