FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

PERFECT GAME LAUNCHES “PG MOMS”, A NEW CONTENT

AND PARTNERSHIP PLATFORM CELEBRATING

THE MOTHERS BEHIND THE GAME

 

Sanford, Florida (Thursday, October 8, 2026) - Perfect Game, the world’s largest youth baseball and softball platform and scouting service, today announced the launch of PG Moms, a new social media-driven initiative celebrating the mothers who play an essential role in the travel baseball journey. The new content platform will allow moms who are well-versed in the youth baseball space to share their lessons, insights and tips in authentic ways with fellow moms across the country. The platform will debut this week from Perfect Game’s annual WWBA World Championship event in Jupiter, Fla., with additional content rolling out throughout the month of October.

The platform will be anchored by a new podcast – The Perfect Mom Podcast presented by Perfect Game – led by television personality and longtime travel baseball mom Evelyn Lozada. Lozada, a model, spokesperson and creator, has been a mainstay in reality TV projects over the years. Her unique mix of media expertise and baseball acumen will help drive the subject matter of the show.

In addition, the PG Moms platform will feature several other moms from across the country who create relevant content and attend PG events nationwide. In addition to documenting their families’ experiences traveling the country for tournaments, showcases and other Perfect Game events, the PG Moms will share their takes on topics that mothers often wrestle with during their daily journeys supporting their kids in competitive youth sports.

 “Behind every Perfect Game athlete is a support system that doesn’t make the box score, and at the center of it, more often than not, is someone named Mom,” said Perfect Game CMO Kash Shaikh. "They're the packers, the planners, the chefs, the cheerleaders, the travel agents, the chauffeurs, the counselors, the wardrobe consultants, the videographers and the loudest voices in the stands. Our PG Moms platform is an opportunity for us to shine a light on the people who make so many of these baseball dreams possible, while also creating content that can help guide other moms across the country during their own journeys throughout travel baseball and youth sports.”

PG Moms will tackle issues that confront mothers as they support their children’s athletic development, including: the balance between participation and performance and competition and playing time; traveling to national PG Flagship events versus local PG Classic tournaments; dealing with personalities and conflicts within coaching and parenting circles; family, fashion and function throughout the process.

The content will also showcase the family bonding that can come from traveling together and watching a child pursue a passion. At Perfect Game events, families from across the country routinely travel hundreds or even thousands of miles to compete. PG Moms will give viewers a front-row seat to that experience from the perspective of the mothers who make those journeys possible. From the car ride to the ballpark to the final out of the weekend, PG Moms is about the journey as much as the game.

The initiative will roll out across Perfect Game’s social media platforms, with additional content available through the free PGTV app and PerfectGame.TV.

Wolforth Throwing Mentorship: Article 70

That Off-Season Program Wasn't Built for Your Son. It Was Built for Nobody. The Harsh Reality of Skill Development · Part 2 of 5 Somewhere right now, a pitcher is starting a twelve-week off-season program. It came from his travel team. Or a trainer. Or a big leaguer's Instagram. It has phases and a logo, and every kid in the building got the same one. Here is the harsh reality. That program was written before anybody looked at your son. It doesn't know he exists. It was built for the average pitcher... and the average pitcher does not exist. A Template Fixes Somebody's Problem. Maybe Not His. Every pitcher who is stuck is stuck for a reason. We call that reason his constraint... the thing that is actually limiting him right now. For one kid it is strength. For the next it is mobility. For the next it is a mechanical inefficiency, or an arm that isn't recovering, or a body that...

Your Son's April Arm Injury is Being Scheduled Right Now   The Harsh Reality of Skill Development - Part 1 of 5 Let me start this series with something most people in baseball won't say out loud. In my experience, a great many of the arm problems we will see next April are being set up right now... in October, November and December. Not necessarily because a young pitcher is throwing too much. Often it's because of what happens when he stops. Here is the pattern. I have watched it for more than thirty years. The fall season ends. The arm is tired, so the family does what seems like the responsible thing.  They shut it down. No throwing. For a lot of kids, no anything. Weeks go by. The holidays come and go. Then somebody looks at a calendar in January and realizes tryouts are three weeks away. Suddenly, an arm that has done nothing since October is asked to go from zero to game...

Complete Class of 2027 Rankings With the end of the summer and fall seasons behind us, it was time for a quick refresh of the 2027 class rankings. Below you'll be able to read about some of the biggest risers up the board, led by North Carolina outfielder John Hucko who jumped more than 110 spots to now sit at No. 20 overall.  John Hucko, OF, Charlotte, N.C. Previous Rank: 132 | Current Rank: 20 Hucko makes a huge leap into the top-20 players in the class after a dominating showing in Jupiter. It’s as good of a left-handed swing as you’ll come across with pretty easy impact to all parts. He’s a supreme athlete with all the tools to play center long term and is a present plus runner. Hucko is a name that cemented his prospect status in Jupiter and will be a name to follow for next year’s MLB Draft. Elyjah Mason, SS, Lake Forest, Calif. Previous Rank: 71 |...

2028: Under-the-Radar Names to Know

2028 Post-Circuit Dive: Under-the-Radar Names to Know One of my favorite parts of the calendar comes after the summer and fall circuits have wrapped, when I can finally sit down, dig through our tournament performance data and uncover some names that may have slipped through the cracks. With hundreds of events on the schedule and thousands of players coming through them, there's inevitably going to be talent that I or even our collective staff haven't given enough attention to. For this exercise, I wanted to isolate a particular offensive profile. I looked for 2028 bats who produced at a high level while keeping their swing-and-miss numbers in check across a sample of at least 50 plate appearances. On the pitching side, the approach was equally straightforward in terms of identifying arms who consistently filled the strike zone while missing bats at a strong clip. Of course, not all...

Their showings in Fort Myers were simply a continuation of what we've almost come to expect at this point from them!  Kasen Langerhans (2028, Round Rock, Texas) batted leadoff and stuck at the hot corner for Texas Twelve Red Sox 2028 in Fort Myers. The Texas native has the looks a young left-handed power bat and the swing is built for it. Langerhans produces easy bat speed, delivering a fast and leveraged barrel through the zone. He creates backspin and uses the ground well, really getting into the legs. The infielder has excellent power projection and took comfortable, intentful cuts in the box. Langerhans got the job done at the top of the order...
