Tylor Megill parents Kevin Megill and Julie Megill raised three athletes in California. Kevin was a rower and Julie is a photographer.

Like Joey Lucchesi, he is a professional baseball player who primarily plays as a pitcher for the MLB side, New York Mets.

Tylor was on the baseball team at the Los Alamitos High School as their pitcher. Afterward, he joined Loyola Marymount University after failing to be drafted in the 2014 MLB draft.

He was with the LMU Lions for a year before transferring to Cypress College. Megill attended the University of Arizona for his final two years in college. He had a total of 202 strikeouts with an ERA of 4.27. Moreover, as a fielder, he registered 15 putouts and managed a fielding percentage of .871.

Thanks to impressive showings in college, Tylor was drafted by the New York Mets via the 2018 MLB draft as an 8th-rounder. After spending a couple of years in the minor league, playing for different Mets farm system teams, he finally made his major league debut on June 2021.

Kevin and Julie often go to their son's games and show their support from the stands in the ballpark.

During a New York Mets Game, when the MLB network interviewed Kevin and Julie, they expressed their happiness and excitement to see their son play. Also, they mentioned that having two sons make their MLB debut a couple of months apart was a dream-to-reality-moment.

Kevin stated that everything they've achieved is all on their own and due to their hard work. They both mentioned that naming their son Tylor instead of Tyler was because of the fact that their elder son had OR in his name, "Trevor," and they wanted to go with Tylor. Julie reiterated that Tyler loves his name and the OR sound in it.

Kevin Megill Met Julie Megill At A Gym

Tylor Megill's father Kevin Megill is a sales and education representative at a nutrition company.

Julie thinks that her husband being part of Mrm-usa.com definitely helped their children to grow their athletic abilities as she mentioned that their family had access to amazing trainers and sports nutrition as well as medicine.

Kevin and Julie first met at a gym in California. Kevin walked up to Julie and asked for her number.

Since they are both from the "Golden State," it aided in their meet-up and the subsequent growth of their relationship. Mets pitcher Kevin told the New York Post about their cute relationship history.

Kevin was an athlete in his younger days as he used to be a rower during his time at Orange Coast College and UCLA. His spouse Julie credits her husband for the genetic abilities passed down to their kids.

Kevin definitely was a huge influence and reference point for their sons and daughter when they were younger, and one of them surely followed in his footsteps by becoming a rower in college.

He is active on Facebook, and often uploads posts about his children and MLB in general. Kevin also has many pictures uploaded of himself and Julie enjoying their time together during a vacation or retreats. He still loves to row and updates his activities on his timeline.

Likewise, he doesn't shy away from his dissatisfaction with the democratic government. He is a critic of the ruling party as he is out there when it comes to sharing posts and uploading facts that are against the left when they do something wrong.
