Baseball Almanac is pleased to present a comprehensive chart of every Bradley University alumnus who played baseball at Bradley University AND made it to the Major League level.

"I've said it before, and I'll say it again: It may be cloudy in my right eye, but the sun is shining very brightly in my left eye. And just think how the sun has shined, right up to the doors of this great hall, the shrine for the greatest game in the world and the greatest players in the world." - Kirby Puckett (National Baseball Hall of Fame Induction Day Speech)
