Before this season, only four former Towson University baseball players had ever reached the major league level. That number grew to five when Richie Palacios made his debut with the Guardians in April, collecting two hits in his first game. Palacios joined Al Rubeling, Chris Nabholz, Casper Wells and Bruce Zimmermann as Tigers to have reached the big leagues. Speaking of which, Zimmermann started the home opener for his hometown Orioles in April. And the Guardians had another notable debut in September from Laurel native Cody Morris (Reservoir).
