Scouting Report: Ty Tice

Summary

Tyce Armstrong is a Baylor redshirt senior first baseman who has had an exceptional 2026 college baseball season. He made history in his debut with three grand slams on Feb. 13, becoming only the second player in NCAA history to accomplish this feat and the first since 1976. Armstrong has continued his dominant performance, breaking Baylor's single-season home run record with his 22nd homer of the season, surpassing Charley Carter's 28-year-old record of 21 from 1998. In a recent week, Armstrong hit 5 home runs and earned three national awards including Baseball America's National Team of the Week, Perfect Game National Player of the Week, and shared National Hitter of the Week honors from the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association. He went 9-for-15 (.600) that week with every hit going for extra bases—5 home runs and 4 doubles—while driving in 9 runs. Armstrong also logged three multi-hit and three multi-RBI games during that stretch.
