Here’s a sports-and-celeb-studded deal: Former MLB player Jim Edmonds and his wife, Meghan King Edmonds of “Real Housewives of Orange County,” have sold their Newport Beach, CA, home to Tom Telesco, general manager of the Los Angeles Chargers, according to the Los Angeles Times.

The recently renovated home was on the market for about a year and sold for $2,998,000. It was originally listed for $3,399,000.

The Edmonds paid $2.8 million for the five-bedroom, 5.5-bath house about two years ago. Its remodel was featured in a “RHOC” episode in which the housewives helped tear out the kitchen during a demolition party.
