Georgia Institute of Technology in the major leagues

The table lists 52 major league players who played college baseball at Georgia Institute of Technology, in Atlanta, GA. Debuts run from 1903 (Weldon Henley) to 2014 (Buck Farmer). Mark Teixeira played the most games of any alumnus, 1862. Del Pratt collected the most hits, 1996. The best career average among regular hitters is .313, by Nomar Garciaparra. Lew Carpenter, Ray Blemker, and Mike Jerzembeck show dashes in the batting columns because the table lists hitting only. More of the school's major leaguers debuted in the 2000s than in any other decade. Nearby on the site: Georgia Perimeter College, Georgia Southern University, and Georgia Southwestern State University, also in GA. The school list is built from Lahman's record of where players played college baseball; a player who attended without playing may not appear.
