A Glimpse at Harvard Baseball Alumni On the Road to the Show

Jake McGuiggan received two All-Ivy selections during his career with the Crimson and was a captain as a senior. The Hingham, Mass., native hit .347 with 26 RBIs in that final year and was the steadiest contributor in a loaded Harvard lineup. Following his time in Cambridge, McGuiggan has since played in both the Canadian-American Association and the Atlantic League.

McGuiggan hit .219 in 2016 as a member of the New Britain Bees. The middle infielder appeared in 56 games and posted 43 hits and 31 RBIs.

“I’m heading down to New Britain this week to join the team again for my second season with the Bees and my third season overall,” McGuiggan said. “Playing at the Division I level gave me the confidence as a ballplayer where I knew I might have the skills to play at the next level.”

DANNY MOSKOVITS ’13-’14

Right-handed pitcher Danny Moskovits came to Cambridge from Newport Beach, Calif. Beginning in 2014, Moskovits pitched in the Canadian-American Association through last season.

The righty saw action in 22 games during the 2016 season on the rosters of two Independent League teams. Moskovits started 16 games, pitching for the Sussex County Miners and the Laredo Lemurs. He recorded 46 strikeouts in 96.2 innings, with an ERA of 6.24.

ERIC EADINGTON ’10-’11

Left-handed pitcher Eadington signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers as a free agent after graduating from Harvard in 2011. The Corona Del Mar, Calif., native pitched for five minor league teams over the course of five seasons, before joining an independent league last year.

Eadington worked his way back from his second Tommy John surgery to pitch for the Gary Southshore Railcats and Winnipeg Goldeyes last season. The former Crimson pitcher had nine saves in 47 innings and fanned 66 total batters.
