Connor Seabold played in the 2015 - 2017 Titan Baseball seasons going to Omaha twice, the first in 2015 as a freshman and 2017 as a junior. Seabold from Newport Harbor High was selected by the Baltimore Orioles in the 2014 MLB draft in the 19th round but elected to attend Cal State Fullerton. In just three years he would improve upon that draft position and was selected in the third round (83rd overall) by the Philadelphia Phillies in the 2017 draft.

As a freshman, Seabold assumed the Sunday starter role later in the season and took over the Friday night starter role a month into his sophomore season. The Friday night starter is the role traditionally reserved for the team's ace and Seabold held that Friday night starting spot for two years. His junior year, Seabold went 11-5 with a sub-three ERA and would go on to strikeout 122 batters compared to issuing 22 walks. Seabold was named an All-American by Collegiate Baseball and first team all Big West Conference in 2017.

Seabold's name appears in the Titan record book a number of times ranking 7th all-time for strikeouts per 9 innings and fewest walks per 9 innings in a season. He ranks 5th in strikeout-to-walk ratio in a single season. Spanning his career while wearing the Fullerton blue and orange, he ranks 3rd all time in strikeout to walk ratio, trailing only Thomas Eshelman and Wes Roemer and fourth all time in strikeouts per nine innings. His 294 strikeouts ranks 9th all time and 1.41 walks per nine innings ranks 6th all-time. In 2017, Seabold led the team in wins with 11 victories and strikeouts with the afore mentioned 122 punch outs.

In this podcast we discuss getting drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies, going to spring training early, some of his favorite moments while playing for the Titans and balancing a professional baseball career in the eastern time zone while trying to stay up to date on the current Titan Baseball team.
