Austin Overn finds a great landing spot with the Orioles.
The Baltimore Orioles have selected USC Trojans outfielder Austin Overn with the No. 97 overall pick in the third round of the 2024 MLB draft.
Austin Overn has played on both the USC football and baseball teams during his time at the school, playing wide receiver in 2022. In 2023, he began playing for the Trojans baseball team and ended up with two excellent seasons for USC.
In 117 career games over the 2023 and 2024 seasons, Austin Overn hit .291 with a .376 OBP and a .495 slugging percentage. He had 12 home runs and 70 RBIs to go along with 23 doubles and 19 triples. He also stole 33 bases.
He also set a new single-season USC record for triples with 14 as a freshman, breaking the previous USC record of 10 set by Grant Green in 2008. At the end of the 2023 season, he was named a freshman All-American, an All-Pac-12 selection and a Pac-12 All-Defensive Team selection.
On Day 1 of the MLB draft, the Baltimore Orioles selected outfielder Vance Honeycutt, No. 22 overall, out of the University of North Carolina. Then they picked two players from the University of Virginia — shortstop Griff O’Ferrall (No. 32) and catcher Ethan Anderson (No. 61) beef selecting Overn today.
With their 3rd-round pick (No. 97 overall), the @Orioles select @USC_Baseball outfielder Austin Overn, No. 131 on the Top 250 Draft Prospects list.
Good morning, Winners! Thanks for taking some time and reading TMW today.
There’s been a lot of discussion surrounding rest versus rust in the MLB postseason so far. Now, with the Dodgers and Orioles both in 2-0 holes as the top seeds in the AL and NL, that conversation is heating up even more.
To be fair, what’s happening is very weird. In the first 118 MLB postseasons only three 100-win teams lost their first two postseason games at home, per ESPN. The Dodgers and Orioles have done it on consecutive nights here. That’s wild.
The biggest problem here the best teams in baseball just aren’t winning right now. That’s not a playoff format problem — that’s an individual team problem.
The Braves certainly had no trouble digging a tough one out against the Phillies on Monday night. It took a bit of superhero work from Michael Harris II in the end, sure, but Atlanta made it happen.
That’s just sports, man. It’s the playoffs. Find a way to win. If you can’t? Tough. Go home.
“The best team won’t win the World Series? Brother, that’s old news: Since divisional play began in 1969 through 2021, the team with the best record in baseball won the World Series just 14 times in 52 years – or 27% of the time. And since MLB split into a six-division format beginning with the 1995 playoffs, we’ve welcomed plenty of relatively middling champions.”
Sure, sometimes we get juggernauts like last year’s Astros or the 2020 Dodgers who are very clearly head and shoulders above the rest of the teams in the league. But other times, we get teams like 2021’s 88-win Braves who manage to climb the mountaintop.
The fact that we can have both is what makes the sport — and this journey as a whole — beautiful. It’s imperfect and that’s awesome.
The NBA’s future is alien
TIMOTHY A. CLARY/AFP
That’s the only way possible to describe what we saw from Victor Wembanyama and Chet Holmgren on Monday night. Those dudes just don’t make any sense. Literally.
The two rookies squared off in a preseason game and I felt like I might has well been watching a Kaiju flick. A 7-5 big guard versus a 7-1 big guard. Basketball has never looked like this before.
“Both of these players did so many things we’re simply not used to seeing on the confines of an actual basketball court.
Holmgren is 7-foot-1 but scored as the ball-handler in a pick-and-roll set and nailed a 3-pointer using an off-ball screen. He also scored in more traditional ways like a big man would, including putbacks and basket cuts and rim rolls.
Wembanyama also managed some absurd scoring possessions. Some of his most impressive moments came after off-ball screens, dribble handoffs and transition leak-outs.
His offensive rebound putback scores were exciting but the finesse that he displayed on his layup package was fully unbelievable.”
My favorite part of the game was when Wembanyama basically stole the ball from Cason Wallace from the 3-point line (!!!!). It was unreal, man.
The final week of MLB’s season is finally here and the regular season is nearly over.
But don’t get it twisted — there’s still plenty of intrigue along the way. The playoffs might be near but a lot of things still haven’t quite been figured out.
The standings across the league are still in flux. We don’t know who is going to play who. We don’t even know where the best teams in the AL are going to be playing at quite yet. It’s so exciting.
It’s also a lot, I know. But don’t you worry — you don’t have to keep up with all of it alone. We’re here to do that for you.
Here’s where everything stands as the final week of the regular season continues.
Gunnar Henderson might unintentionally be the funniest player in baseball for this
Somebody needs to talk to Gunnar Henderson, man. He denied himself a pretty great achievement for no good reason at all. It’s actually pretty hilarious.
He was only one single away from hitting for a cycle against the A’s. He’d done the hard part of getting the homer, the triple and the double. And, finally, at the top of the 8th inning, Henderson got himself another base hit.
Now, one would think that he’d just stop at first base and get himself that elusive cycle that so many players would love to have. Nope. The dude scurries past first base and notches himself another extra-base hit.
The fact that he did this isn’t even the best part. It’s the fact that his teammates were baffled that really makes it great. Just look at their faces.
The best part is that he doesn’t even really care. Like, at all. You can see it in his face. As hilarious as this is, you can do nothing but respect it.
Honestly, he’s not wrong here! Look, I’m all for the cycle. And I certainly would’ve stopped here. But there’s no reason that this shouldn’t count as a cycle, right? It’s not a single, but he did get the base he needed.
It doesn’t count, but this is a cycle in all of our books, Gunnar. Don’t worry.
It wasn’t thrown hard but it was certainly over the plate
It was a Notre Dame connection on Tuesday night at Camden Yards in Baltimore when Ravens first round draft pick [autotag]Kyle Hamilton[/autotag] threw out the first pitch ahead of the Orioles home game against the Washington Nationals.
Hamilton wasn’t the only Domer participating however as former Notre Dame baseball star and current Oriole [autotag]Trey Mancini[/autotag] caught the first pitch. You can check out Hamilton’s toss below,
It was really only a matter of time for Adley Rutschman. Since being drafted as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2019 MLB draft, the clock has been ticking to the moment he’d finally get his shot to play in the majors.
Rutschman is a potential star for baseball. He’s the reward for Orioles fans after their dreaded 2019 season. They’re not as bad as they once were today, but at 16-24 they could certainly use an infusion of talent. They’re hoping Rutschman is that for them.
Obviously, it’s taken a while to get here given that the COVID-19 pandemic paused baseball for a while. But the moment is here. And it couldn’t have been sweeter.
We got a glimpse at the moment Rutschman got his call up and the joy he was overcome with was completely visible.
