High school baseball programs in California, Florida, Texas and Georgia produced more players in the 2019 MLB postseason than the rest of the country combined.

That quartet of states has 80 former players involved in the playoffs – including those on the rosters of the eliminated Milwaukee Brewers, Minnesota Twins and Oakland A's.

California leads the way with 27, including Ryan Braun of the Brewers and formerly Granada Hills Charter, Gerrit Cole of the Houston Astros and Orange Lutheran (Orange) and the New York Yankees duo of Aaron Judge (Linden) and Giancarlo Stanton (Notre Dame).

Florida was next with 24, including Astros Game 3 starter Zack Greinke of Apopka.

Texas (17) and Georgia (12) were the only other states to land double digit players on playoff rosters.

Rounding out the top five, American League Cy Young favorite Justin Verlander of the Astros and Goochland headlines a contingent of nine players from Virginia.

See the map and list below for a complete state-by-state breakdown.
