GAINSEVILLE, Fla. – Former Florida All-American outfielder Wyatt Langford swiped his 20th bag of the season with the Texas Rangers on Tuesday night, effectively joining the 20-homer/20-steal club for the 2025 MLB season.
 
In accomplishing the feat at just 23 years of age (and 305 days), Langford is the youngest member of the 20-homer/20-steal club in Rangers franchise history. The Trenton, Fla. native is also the first Florida Gator to ever slug 20 homers and steal 20 bases in the same season.

Langford was drafted fourth overall in the first round of the 2023 MLB Draft by Texas after an all-time great career in Orange & Blue from 2021-23. As a Unanimous First Team All-American in 2023, Langford was also named to the College World Series All-Tournament Team, a Golden Spikes Award Semifinalist and First Team All-SEC after hauling in All-American and All-SEC accolades as a sophomore in 2022.
