Baylor baseball right-handed pitcher Mason Marriott (Jr.) was selected 194th overall by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the sixth round of the 2024 Major League Baseball Draft on Monday.

Marriott was the Bears' Friday starter and finished the season with career highs in strikeouts (65) and innings pitched (69.2). The Tomball native led the team with eight starts, where he pitched five-plus innings while surrendering three or fewer earned runs. Despite a 5.94 overall ERA and a rough end to the season, Marriott’s stock rose after an impressive showing at the MLB Combine in June.

The junior righty is the 154th Bear to be drafted all-time. The pick marks the fifth time in the last six seasons that Baylor has had a top-six-round selection. BU has now had picks in 32 of the last 34 drafts, dating back to 1991.
