History and Records

Westmont Baseball History

Westmont baseball was one of the first intercollegiate programs offered at Westmont College. The program has produced 10 NAIA All-Americans and numerous All-District and All-GSAC players. In addition, Westmont has had 26 players sign professional contracts, including two who have reached the major leagues. Most recently right-handed pitcher Timothy Crabbe was drafted by the Cincinatti Reds in the 2009 MLB Draft and is currently playing minor league ball with the Billings Mustaings.

Russ Carr Field, home of the Warriors, is currently under renovation and a new facility is expected to be ready for the beginning of the 2010 season.
