Kyler Murray has yet to begin his pro baseball career, but the 21-year-old A's prospect took national audiences by storm on Saturday while quarterbacking No. 7-ranked Oklahoma in its 63-14 win against Florida Atlantic.
Murray, who was taken with the ninth overall pick in the MLB Draft and is Oakland's No. 4 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, completed nine of 11 passes for 209 yards and a pair of touchdowns, including a 65-yard strike to Marquise Brown, and had four rushes for 23 yards despite exiting before the end of the first half Saturday.
