Northeastern University Baseball Players Who Made it to the Major Leagues

Baseball Almanac is pleased to present a comprehensive chart of every Northeastern University alumnus who played baseball at Northeastern University AND made it to the Major League level.
"That's a career day (6-for-6). He'll (Carlos Pena) never forget this day, that's for sure. I didn't do a darn thing. I just put him in there. Hopefully, he will carry this over for awhile. What a day, that sums it up." - Detroit Tigers Manager Alan Trammell to MLB.com (May 27, 2004)
