Christopher Ryan Young (born May 25, 1979) is an American former professional baseball pitcher who is currently MLB Senior Vice President overseeing the On- Field Operations and Umpiring Departments. This post also requires him to oversee disciplinary action for on-field incidents.
As a sophomore in the fall of 1995, he was moved up to the varsity basketball team from the junior varsity due to injuries. As a junior, his presence was significant enough that one opposing team practiced with a coach holding a broom in the air to simulate playing against him. He helped his team reach the Class 4A-state Region II final. As a junior in baseball, Young threw a no- hitter against McKinney High School in Spring 1997. However, he missed a large part of the season after getting off to a 6–0 start because of a stress fracture in his foot. Nonetheless, he was already considered a top professional prospect, and he was named as one of seven Highland Park players on the all-district team. By the summer of 1997, he was able to play for the Dallas Mustangs who were the defending national champions in the Connie Mack World Series, and he earned the win in the fifth place game of the World Series.
He married Elizabeth Patrick and the couple had their first child, a daughter named Catherine, in 2008, followed by a pair of sons in 2010 and 2012.
