As usual, Kyson Witherspoon was first, but eventually, like always, his twin brother Malachi followed.
Kyson, who was born just minutes before Malachi, was taken 15th overall by the Boston Red Sox during the 2025 MLB Draft on Sunday. Then, in the second round, Malachi went to the Detroit Tigers with the No. 62 pick.
The twins made up two-thirds of the Oklahoma Sooners' weekend starting rotation this past college baseball season and now have a chance to accomplish something that hasn't been done since another pair of Sooners. Kyson and Malachi could become the first set of twins to make the MLB after being drafted the same year since 1996, according to MLB.
