During AAPI Heritage Month, we honor @UKBaseball's Ka’ai Tom, from Kaneohe, Hawaii, who totaled a .352 career average in two seasons with the Wildcats. Tom finished his UK career with 148 career hits, the second-most hits for a two-year UK player in program history. Tom was selected in the fifth round of the 2015 MLB Draft, going No. 154 overall, to Cleveland and has played in MLB for the Oakland Athletics, Pittsburgh Pirates and San Francisco Giants. He’s one of fewer than 50 Hawaiian-born players to reach MLB.
