Team Austin? [View all]

Years ago, a work colleague and friend sometimes came up with interesting trivia challenges. Like, name a full major league 9-player squad with “z” in their name (easy) or a squad of players with a “color” name. (A favorite pairing was the pitching matchup of Black v Blue.)

Anyway, I noticed there are currently quite a few major leaguers named Austin. So without searching online, can we put together a 9-player squad of Austins?
I’ll start with two: pitcher Austin Nola (Phillies) and at 3B, Austin Riley (Braves).

Additions?
