Tyler Tolbert during his days playing as a Hewitt-Trussville Husky. Tolbert now plays in the major leagues.
Hewitt-Trussville High School alum Tyler Tolbert made his Major League Baseball debut on April 2 for the Kansas
City Royals, scoring a run.
Tolbert was drafted by the Royals in 2019 out of UAB and has spent the last five seasons working his way through the Kansas City organization.
Tolbert has made strides as a hitter, and his elite skills as a baserunner make him valuable to a big league club. He stole the first four bases of his career in the Royals’ series against the Orioles.
