This week we sat down with Top 30 KC Royals prospect Noah Murdock. Noah was drafted in the 7th round of the 2019 draft and is spending his first Spring Training Pitching in Big League camp.
The 6'8 hurler proves that pitchers are athletes. In his senior year of high school (2016) he was the Virginia Volleyball player of the year, and led them to a state championship. After dominating the court and diamond at Colonial Heights High, he took his talents to Charlottesville where he pitched for the University of Virginia.
Noah's fiancé is a softball coach. She helped him through quarantine by catching his bullpens. She's even given him advice on pitching...you'll have to listen to hear about it.
