Finnigan is 16th baseball commit
The Saddleback baseball program had one of the great seasons in program history in 2023 and the offseason has been just as good. The Bobcats had another commitment this week, giving them 16 for the year.
Christian Finnigan was the latest to commit, giving a pledge to Butler University. Butler is located in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Bulldogs play an NCAA D1 schedule within the Big East Conference.
Finnigan pitched in six games this past season, striking out eight batters in seven innings of work. He came to Saddleback from Seton Hall University where he pitched in eight games for the Pirates in 2022.
Finnigan lettered in baseball and football at San Juan Hills High School before graduating in 2021.
