With the 15th pick in the 2025 MLB Draft, the Boston Red Sox selected righty pitcher Kyson Witherspoon out of Oaklahoma.

Kyson Witherspoon became the first OU baseball player since 2022 to be selected in the first round of the MLB Draft, going No. 15 overall to the Boston Red Sox.

“With Kyson, it’s big velocity,” director of amateur scouting Devin Pearson said.
