We took a deep dive into high school baseball programs and states with the most alums on the rosters of teams still alive in the postseason. We connected players to the school where they finished their prep career.
Leading the way with 47 former players is the state of Texas, including 18 on the current Longhorns roster. Georgia is second with 33 and 42 percent of them stayed in-state to play for the Bulldogs. Alabama and Florida are tied for third with 22.
In total, 38 states including the District of Columbia have a player represented on this list.
