Astros strike for 17 runs to claim 13U Crown

EMERSON, Ga. – The East Cobb Astros 13U defeated Knights Baseball 13U Platinum to capture the 2018 PG Super25 13u Georgia Super Qualifier title. The Astros needed just 8 hits to muster 17 runs across the plate to win the game in blowout fashion.

In each of the game’s four innings, the Astros put up crooked numbers including a seven spot in the top of the fourth. Preston Murphy, Luke Dotson, and Zachary Zorbo all led the way for the Astros with 3 RBI. Zorbo’s production came early in the game in the top of the first inning where he stood at the plate with a 1-1 count. Zorbo connected on a fastball and drove it to center field for a 3-RBI triple to put the Astros out in front early. The Knights would get one run back in the bottom of the first but were halted for the rest of the game thanks to excellent starting pitching from Jackson McKenzie.

Dylan Cupp would lead off the second inning with a triple to center field and would score on the next pitch as Chandler Pollard would single him home. Pollard would second and third before scoring on a sacrifice fly from Preston Murphy. The game was far out of reach after two innings before the Astros really poured it on for 11 more runs in the next two innings.

The MVP of the event was Jackson McKenzie of the East Cobb Astros 13u. McKenzie had a stellar weekend going 8-15 (.533) with 9 RBI including a home run. Jack Dollar was crowned the MV-Pitcher with two appearances during the 2018 PG Super25 13u Georgia Super Qualifier. Dollar pitched 4 2/3 innings of one hit baseball striking out 4 and walking none.

Bombers outlast Titans in back-and-forth affair

EMERSON, Ga. – In a wild game that featured a ton of jockeying between both teams, Georgia Bombers (Hill) defeated Titans Baseball 14s Blue with a walk-off run to win the game by a score of 9-8. Both offenses came out of the gate swinging which made for a very entertaining game and an exciting finish. 

The Titans struck first with a three-run top of the first inning. Trent Reddick and Brody Hollingsworth notched back-to-back RBI doubles to bring two runs in and Griffin Cherry put the “cherry” on top with an RBI single to make the lead 3-0 heading into the bottom of the third.

The Bombers would strike back in the bottom of the second inning with two runs, thanks in part to a Cade Thompson triple that saw him score later in the next at-bat, before the Titans struck again both in the third and the fifth. Reddick, Hollingsworth, and Cherry were at the center of the action again and the score was 8-2 heading into the bottom of the fifth.

The rally started in the bottom of the fifth for the Bombers as they would put seven runs over the final four frames to seal the victory. The sixth inning saw them put up four runs, including an RBI double from Riley Stanford, and the Bombers would seal the victory in the eighth with a walk-off, run-scoring error.

De’yon Cannon was a key stabilizing force as he tossed 4 1/3 strong innings while only allowing one earned run. Canyon battled through some control issues with four walks but was up to 82 mph and effectively shutout the Titans for the rest of the affair.

Trent Reddick was named MVP of the event with a .500 batting average, six extra base hits, and thirteen RBI while also putting forth a strong effort in the championship game. Cole Munhall tossed a complete game shutout earlier in the tournament to earn MV-Pitcher honors. Munhall struck out ten batters and only allowed five hits over seven shutout frames.

PG Draft: Potential Risers Into Top 50

Michael Albee
Article Image
We are in the early stages of the 2027 cycle and there is still plenty of time for players to make significant jumps up the board. While our current Top-100 provides an early look at the class, several players just outside that group have the upside to make a run at becoming Top-50 pick by next July. With that in mind, each member of the draft team each selected one college player and one prep player they believe could make the jump into the Top-50 over the course of the spring. These are the names to keep an eye on as the 2027 draft picture continues to develop. Joey’s Picks:   Jake Cueto (27 FL) goes oppo πŸ’£ on a mid-90s LonL heater. Performing at a very high level, hitting .464 with 5 homers.

PG Wood Bat Fall Kickoff Scout Notes

Perfect Game Staff
Article Image
Evan Thompson (‘29, AZ) showcasing the all-fields power with this ground rule double the other way. Immense power upside. Really fun offensive profile #FallKickoff https://t.co/l551KirUOf pic.twitter.com/QW0AIeg59g — Perfect Game Four Corners (@PG_FourCorners) September 7, 2026 Evan Thompson (2029, Gilbert, Ariz.) put on an offensive clinic throughout the weekend, going 8-for-13 with three extra-base hits. He capped off his MVP performance with a walkoff home run to take home the championship. Thompson is one of the premier players in the 2029 class. A fluid left-handed stroke consistently finds barrels. There is all fields power present that will only continue to develop further. It would not be a surprise if Thimpson ends up the top ranked player in the class when it is all said and done.  Chase Fillman (2028, Goodyear, Ariz.) put together a loud summer circuit and...

What Profiles Are Valued Most at Top of Draft

Tyler Henninger
Article Image
The landscape of the MLB Draft continues to evolve each and every year. What teams value at the top of the draft can change based on the strength of a particular class, shifts in player development philosophy, and, perhaps most importantly, the way organizations evaluate risk and upside. Some trends are subtle, while others become impossible to ignore when viewed across multiple years. For this study, I set out to answer one question: What player profiles do teams value at the top of the draft? To answer it, I analyzed the Top-100 picks from each of the last six drafts (2021-2026). That gives us 600 total selections to examine and provides a large enough sample to identify both the profiles that have remained consistently popular and those that have gained or lost significant ground. The data was broken down by position, handedness and level to create individual player profiles. While...
