The Yankees’ fourth-round pick is in! After going back-to-back on pitchers in rounds two and three, the team took its second position player: college outfielder Anthony Hall.
The 21-year-old was previously drafted in the 35th round of the 2019 MLB Draft by the Braves out of Point Loma High School in San Diego, which might be a place familiar to Yankees fans. That’s where a pair of perfect-game artists attended, many years apart — Don Larsen and David Wells.
Hall decided to go north to the University of Oregon instead, and he carved out a nice career for himself as a Duck.
