After an injury-riddled 2024 season, some familiar faces at Baylor Ballpark have worked their way back onto the field for Baylor baseball during fall ball and established themselves as cornerstones heading into the 2025 season.

Head coach Mitch Thompson went into his second year feeling confident his team had vastly improved and had the pieces in place to compete in the Big 12. Unfortunately, several key pieces couldn’t make their way to conference baseball.

Second baseman Jack Little and outfielder Gavin Brzozowski suffered season ending injuries during the week leading up to the season and outfielder Hunter Simmons suffered a season-ending injury trying to make a highlight reel catch in the outfield just a few weeks later.
