Gingery attended Marina High School in Huntington Beach, California. As a senior, he had a 2–4 win–loss record with a 1.30 earned run average (ERA).[1] He was not drafted out of high school in the 2015 MLB draft and enrolled at Texas Tech University. In 2016, as a freshman, Gingery appeared in 15 games (14 being starts) and was 4–2 with a 3.18 ERA.[2]
As a sophomore, in 2017, Gingery pitched to a 10–1 record with a 1.58 ERA in 15 starts.[3] He was named the Big 12 Conference Pitcher of the Year along with earning the National Pitcher of the Year Award.[4][5]
In 2018, Gingery appeared in only one game due to a torn ulnar collateral ligament of the elbow that required Tommy John surgery.[6] Despite this, he was still drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in the fourth round of the 2018 MLB draft,[7] and he signed for $825,000.[8]
