Ella Cross brings left-handed contact, patience, and everyday value to Yale’s outfield
Ella Cross is a sophomore outfielder for Yale who already looks like a steady top-order piece, hitting .304 in the 2026 season with a .407 on-base percentage, 13 RBI, and 17 walks in 39 games/38 starts. Her value is more than the batting line: she brings left-handed balance, on-base discipline, and enough defensive versatility to show up in the outfield and occasionally infield. For a team looking for a reliable, competitive role player with upside rather than flash, Cross fits the mold.
