Top level college baseball players play in Orange County every year, giving residents unequaled access today to the future stars of professional baseball. Notable OC Riptide alumni that have advanced all the way to Major League Baseball include Caleb Kilian (Cubs), Dominic Fletcher (Diamondbacks) and Trey Lipscomb (Nationals).
