FAMU baseball catcher Ty Hanchey signed a free agent contract with the San Francisco Giants after the 2023 MLB Draft. Hanchey was named NCAA All-Regional Tournament and helped the Rattlers win the SWAC in 2023.
Hanchey's signing comes on the heels of participating in the Inaugural HBCU Swingman Classic last Friday in Seattle during MLB All-Star Weekend.
The last FAMU player selected in the MLB Draft was first baseman Aubrey McCarty in 2017 when he was selected in the 26th round by the Colorado Rockies.
