Alex Christie brings pop and veteran polish to Butler’s infield
In the 2026 season, Butler’s Alex Christie has already flashed real impact: he homered in the opener, added another solo blast in mid-February, and was noted by Butler and opposing previews as one of the Bulldogs’ early home-run leaders[2][9][11]. The bigger story is his profile—an older, experienced graduate student with proven bat-to-ball and power history from Hanover, where he once posted 69 hits, 28 doubles, 10 homers, and 58 RBI in a single season[1]. He looks like a fit if you want a tough, productive INF who can add middle-order punch and steady veteran presence[1][7].
