7/20/2010 2:19:00 PM

Parker Danciu (LHP Delray Beach, FL 2012), Rico Beltran (LHP Delray Beach, FL 2012) and Danny Young (LHP Lake Worth, FL 2012) combined to shut down the ABA Braves today at Terry Park.  Danciu started the game and pitched two innings of scoreless baseball.  He allowed just two hits and struck out two.  Beltran pitched the following two innings, allowing two hits and striking out three.  Young came in and closed the door with a hitless, scoreless inning.  He struck out one batter.

First baseman, Ryan Church (Greenacres, FL 2011) went 3-for-3 with a triple and three RBI from the 8th spot in the order for Palm Beach.

Catcher, Taylor Gushue (Boca Raton, FL 2012) was strong behind the plate for Palm Beach.  The left handed batting catcher showed great lateral movement in blocking pitches in the dirt, he also showed a 2.01 POP time to second base with a strong arm and quick release.







Duo of Helms, Long, shut down Doctors >>

Gm # 9 | 7/20/2010 | 11:30 AM Tampa Bay Warriors Red vs. HIT DOCTOR DIAMONDS

7/20/2010 1:46:32 PM

Game 9: Hit Doctor Diamonds - Tampa Bay Warriors (Red)

The Hit Doctors needed doctors of their own today against Tampa Bay.  The Doctors of hitting managed just two hits as a team, both by right fielder Collin O'Brien (West Bridgewater, MA 2012).  The Doctor's offense was under the weather due to the pitching of right hander Brendon Long and left hander Luke Helms.  Brendon Long started the game and pitched three innings of one hit baseball, striking out three and hitting 88 MPH on the radar gun.  Helms pitched the final frame, allowing just one hit and striking out one.

Offensively, Carson Withum drove in two runs from the bottom of Tampa Bay's lineup with a two run double in the first inning.  Gabby Rios came in off the bench and hit a two run single in the fourth inning.




Overstreet reaches perfection, K's 12 >>

Gm # 7 | 7/20/2010 | 11:30 AM Dulin Dodgers 16u vs. Jacksonville Warriors

7/20/2010 1:33:52 PM

Game 7:  Jacksonville Warriors - Dulin Dodgers

Perfect is the only word that can be used to describe the pitching performance of Dodger right hander Kyle Overstreet (Boaz, AL 2012).  The 6'-0" 180 pounder pitched a complete game (5 innings) and probably wished he could keep throwing.  He didn't allow a base runner, and just one ball left the infield.  He struck out 12 batters, the first 12 of the game.  His fastball hit 85 MPH and he threw a strong curveball and changeup.

Kramer Hollenbach (Arlington, TN 2012) went 2-for-3 offensively for the Dodgers and drove in three runs, leading his team.






Nieto K's ten, shuts out Banditos >>

7/20/2010 1:09:07 PM

Game 4: Houston Banditos - Florida Bombers (blue)

Anthony Nieto (RHP Debary, FL 2012) started the game on the mound for The Florida Bombers and finished it as well.  The 6'-3" 205 lb right hander pitched a complete game shutout (7 innings).  He scattered just four hits while striking out 10 and walking four batters.  Nieto used his changeup very well to keep hitters off balance and it was a good compliment to his 81 MPH fastball.  Nieto never lost his composure, which gave confidence to his defense behind him in his seven inning gem.






Katta shuts down Warriors, offense rolls 12-0 >>

7/20/2010 12:59:54 PM

Game 3 - South Oakland A's (Grey) - Tampa Bay Warriors (Black)

Brandon Katta (RHP Troy, MI 2011) held Tampa's offense at bay.  Katta allowed just two hits in the complete game shutout (4 innings).  He struck out five batters and walked just one.  The 5'10" 170 lb right hander's fastball ranged in the high 70's to compliment a looping curveball.

Jake Miller (Rochester, MI 2011) led the offense for the A's.  The center fielder went 2-for-3 with a run and two RBIs from the second spot in the order.  Ben Yax (Rochester, MI 2011) batted cleanup and went 1-for-3 with a triple, run and two RBI.

The Connecticut Heat had no problems scoring runs against the Florida Pokers (gray) today at Terry Park.  The three through seven batters in the Heat lineup had 11 hits in the game, driving in four runs, and scoring 11 times in the 15-5 win.  Third baseman Joel Roman (East Hartford, CT 2012) went 3-for-4 with three runs and two doubles from the fourth spot in the order.  Designated hitter Bruno Blanchett (Norwich, CT 2011) followed by going 2-for-3 with a triple, run scored and two RBI.
