In 2025, he hit .277 with 15 home runs and 62 runs batted in, leading the club in the latter two categories. Coming off another year where he continued to etch his name into the Goldeyes’ record books, Murphy became the club’s all-time leader in home runs after he hit his 93rd in a June 11 contest against the Chicago Dogs. That mark surpassed franchise great Reggie Abercrombie, who hit 92 round-trippers in his Goldeyes career. Murphy added to his franchise-best mark, finishing the season with 102.
