Austin Schultz

Austin Schultz wears number 2 for the Tri-City Chili Peppers and is listed on the official roster as an outfielder and infielder. Before Cosmic, he played at the University of Kentucky and was drafted by the Detroit Tigers in the 10th round in 2021. The team's bio says he has built a following in the millions and helped shape Cosmic Baseball into what it is today.

The numbers back that up. In early November 2026, his Instagram, @austin.schultz, showed about 1 million followers and more than 1,200 posts, and his TikTok, same handle, showed about 910 thousand followers and 58.5 million likes. His YouTube channel, @austinschultz, showed 426 thousand subscribers.

His videos are baseball with a twist, usually built on a single challenge. Recent YouTube titles include a 500-foot homerun with a bat he jokes should not be legal, playing a game in banned cleats, umpiring his own game, and playing a baseball game while wearing Meta glasses. He has also made videos with other creators, including Lapp Bros.

Cosmic Baseball shows up on the channel too. One video covers the tour's second stop in Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania, where he hit a homerun, and another follows a friendly Cosmic game challenge from creator Eric Sim. Biggy Bailey also made a video about getting an at-bat in a pro game with Austin.
