Norfolk Tides News Release
In conjunction with the Baltimore Orioles, the Norfolk Tides today announced that Jackson Holliday is scheduled to join the Tides on a Major League Rehab Assignment beginning on Opening Night at Harbor Park on March 27. He has not played for Norfolk since July 28, 2024.
Holliday originally joined the Tides towards the end of the 2023 season. His Triple-A debut came on September 5, 2023. Holliday was 19 years, 275 days old that day and became the fourth-youngest Tide to make his Triple-A debut in franchise history. He would go on to help the Tides win the International League Championship Series and the Triple-A National Championship that season.
The 2022 First Overall Pick continued his tenure with Norfolk into 2024. Holliday's first stint with Baltimore came in April that season, debuting on April 10 at Boston. He returned to Norfolk in late April and played with Norfolk through that final game on July 28. Holliday has not played minor league baseball since then. In 209 career Major League games, Holliday is hitting .229 with 22 home runs, 78 RBI and 21 stolen bases.
With Norfolk, Holliday made his impression in the single season record books. Despite playing minimal games with the Tides in 2024, he set the Orioles affiliate single season walks record with 75. He also set the single season on-base percentage record, reach at a .425 rate if the remaining plate appearances needed to qualify were outs. With 437 career plate appearances with Norfolk, he boasts a .423 on-base percentage. He would qualify as a career franchise leader with 500 plate appearances. If Holliday paces at that on-base percentage, he would rank third in franchise history.
