STOCKTON, Calif. – Widely regarded as one of the most powerful sports agents in the world, Scott Boras was inducted as part of the 2025 class of the College Baseball Hall of Fame, announced by the College Baseball Foundation.
Â
Boras, from Elk Grove, California, was part of the Pacific baseball program from 1972-74 and led the team with a .312 batting average in 1972. He was a team captain and an All-American that went on to play four years of minor league baseball for the St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs organizations.
Â
Boras earned a Doctor of Pharmacy from Pacific in 1977. After a knee injury cut his playing career short, he pursued his legal education and earned his law degree from Pacific in 1982.
Â
After law school, Boras worked as an associate in the pharmaceutical defense department of a major Chicago law firm before founding the Boras Corporation. His corporation remains as one of the most valuable baseball agencies in the country with over 100 clients.
Â
Boras is the first agent to negotiate $50 million, $100 million, $200 million, $330 million and $760 million dollar baseball contracts for players. In the baseball litigation arena, he has won more arbitration cases in Major League history than any other agent. Boras Corporation is the only agency in history to negotiate annual player contracts in excess of $1 billion, which has been achieved three times in the past four years. Boras was also the first agent to reach $2 billion in free agency after 2024.
Â
In 1995, Boras was inducted into the Pacific Athletics Hall of Fame. In 2010, he was honored with Pacific's Distinguished Alumni Award which recognizes individuals whose outstanding achievements and service to humanity have brought credit to the university.
Â
In 2014, the Boras Corporation was named by Forbes Magazine as the most valuable single-sport agency in the world. Forbes named Boras the World's Most Powerful Sports Agent nine years in a row.
In 2021, Boras was inducted into the Sacramento Baseball Hall of Fame. That same year, Baseball America named him among Major League Baseball's most influential non-players in the last 25 years.
Â
The Boras Family Foundation hosted Boras Baseball Classics, a tournament showcasing top high school talent in hopes of securing college scholarships. It has helped secure over $325 million in Division I Scholarships.
Boras continues to work as the founder, owner and president of his corporation in Newport Beach, California.
