Pennsbury Star Joe Tiroly Drafted by Padres | San Diego Padres News

Joe Tiroly, a Pennsbury grad and Virginia standout, just got drafted by the San Diego Padres in the seventh round—pick 215 overall. He led Virginia in homers (16), RBIs (66), and hits (76), slashing a solid .984 OPS. Before Virginia, he shone at Rider, including a clutch three-run homer in a 10-inning thriller. Draft experts had him pegged between rounds 3-8, so this pick was right on target. MLB.com ranked him 147th overall. Fellow Pennsbury alum Ryan Zuckerman, a Georgia Tech All-American and ACC Tournament MVP, was also expected to be drafted. Meanwhile, Holy Ghost Prep’s Aiden Robbins went even earlier—92nd overall to the Mets in round 3. It’s a banner day for local baseball talent.
