16u Championship Recap: Day 2

It was a great day to be a pitcher. From shutouts to complete game performances, pitchers propelled their teams to important victories on day two of the PG Super25 16u National Championship in Emerson, Georgia. Here is the rundown of the events from the second day of pool play:

The East Cobb Astros caught fire late in their contest versus Bottom of the Ninth Baseball with eight runs in the final two innings. Brady Netherton held the opposing offense scoreless and tallied six strikeouts over four innings. Joe Lancellotti’s two-run homer in the fourth inning was the highlight of the Astros’ dominant 8-0 win.

The Astros blanked the 59ers 8-0 as well. Cody Greenhill clamped down on the 59ers’ offense, allowing one hit and zero earned runs in four innings on the mound. Xzavion Curry drove home three runs on a pair of singles as the Astros improved to 2-0 in pool play.

The 59ers would drop their second game as well. Alex Kuster rendered the 59ers' offense useless as A. Green Baseball crushed the opposition 5-0 for their first win of the tournament. They would pick up a second in their ensuing match-up versus the CV Marlins 16u. Tanner Glass contributed three RBIs on two hits as A. Green Baseball sunk the Marlins 6-4.

The Scorpions North 2017 Prime faced a tough schedule on Friday as they had to take on the 643 DP Cougars Sterling and the Indians Baseball Club. The Scorpions came up just short in their 3-2 loss to the Cougars. Kennet Sorenson accounted for all three of the Cougars’ RBIs, including the go-ahead run in the top of the sixth inning. 

The Scorpions would not be denied twice. They walloped Indians Baseball Club 6-0 behind the arm of Matthew Boswell. The Scorpions’ ace fanned six batters in as many innings. Donovan Benoit led the offensive charge with a two-run bomb and a pair of singles on a 3-3 day from the dish. 

The Indian Springs Stingers found their footing late in their 9-3 victory over PBA Demarini. The Stingers strung together a momentum-shifting five-run rally in the top of the fourth, highlighted by Will Shepherd’s two-RBI triple to right field.

The Braves could only muster up four hits in a 13-0 defeat at the hands of the Midwest Rangers National. Max Franklin stymied the Braves’ bats with fastballs reaching 89 MPH en route to being named the winning pitcher.

The Braves failed to score any runs on Thursday as Marucci Raley rolled to a convincing 8-0 win. Caden Lemons had a spectacular outing with eight strikeouts and zero earned runs in a complete game performance.

Mission Team Baseball had back-to-back match-ups versus Team Rawlings PBF and Tri-State Arsenal. They rocked Team Rawlings 8-0 in sixth innings, due in large part to a three-RBI game by Crews Taylor.

Tri-State Arsenal would prove to be a tougher test for Mission Team Baseball. They could not keep up with Davis Schneider and the explosive offense of Tri-State Arsenal. Schneider’s bases-clearing double in the fourth inning was the exclamation point on his team’s 9-2 victory.

The Arsenal improved their resume with an 11-1 thrashing of the Indian Springs Stingers courtesy of Jordan Winston’s ten strikeout performance. The Stingers managed one hit off of Winston all game. David Lamanna recorded a game-high five RBIs with a pair of singles.

The SA Angels Blue overwhelmed the ABD Bulldogs 7-2 with six runs in the opening two innings. Six players on the Angels notched an RBI in a complete team effort.

Facing a four-run deficit in the bottom of the fifth inning, the Columbine Elite overcame the odds with a six-run rally to surpass the Charleston Braves 7-5. The Elite snatched the lead after Tanner Barnes’ clutch RBI single to right field.

Kyler McMahan contributed greatly to the Rijo Athletics’ 3-2 triumph over the Gulf Breeze Dolphins with a pair of timely doubles. He also spelled the Athletics’ ace, Drew Santana, to record the final out.

Marucci Trosclair fell to Elite Baseball Training-Chicago 7-1 due in large part to Ryan Eiermann, who allowed four hits and one run in six innings. However, Marucci would get back in the win column as they bested the South Troy Dodgers 4-2 in a close contest on Field 12.

2027 Draft: Way Too Early 1:1 Predictions

Tyler Henninger
Article Image
2027 Top 100 Draft Board  Current Favorite: SS Dylan Seward, Norco HS (Calif.) In our first iteration of the 2027 Draft Board, Norco shortstop Dylan Seward ranks No. 1 overall. The switch-hitter is an ultra-twitchy player with a lot to like on both sides of the ball. He is a supreme athlete that should stick up the middle. Explosiveness is shown in all aspects of his game and gives the profiles big time upside.  In the event that Seward does not go 1:1, each member of our draft team selected a player that they think could wind up in that spot. We are still nearly a full year away from draft day, but here are our “Way Too Early” predictions for the 1st overall pick next July.  Henni’s Pick: C/UTL Gavin Kelly, West Virginia    Gavin Kelly (@WVUBaseball) sends this over the wall in CF for a solo 💣 (100 EV/ 416 ft).

Underclass Area Codes: Standout Arms

Joey Cohen
Article Image
Year in and year out when the best young talent from across the country is packed into one national-level event the arms tend to win the week. That feels especially true in today’s amateur game where velocity, pitch design and high-level training in general are being introduced earlier than ever, allowing young pitchers to develop impactful stuff at a faster rate than younger hitters can consistently catch up to it. The Underclass Area Code Games are no exception and this year there was no shortage of arms that made you stop and take notice. Narrowing it down to 10 was difficult, but I focused on the pitchers who either displayed starter-type traits, brought something genuinely different from a delivery standpoint whether it was slot, height, crossfire or deception or simply possessed an outlier element of stuff that separated them from the pack. These are the 10 arms that stood...
