Alex Ohira (2027, Bellevue, Wash.) continues to show off his quick hands. His athletic frame helps him stay in control of himself. He was able to drive one into right field for an easy base knock—good job to get the barrel to the ball and drive it.
Cash Mellville (2027, Kennewick, Wash.) turned on a fastball and drove it into left field. He was able to get the barrel to the ball, staying on plane and driving it hard through the left side. He hustled out a double on the play.
Hunter Gloor (2027, Puyallup, Wash.) used his frame to barrel up the ball and drive it. Got the hands out in front, staying direct to the ball, driving it back up the middle into centerfield for a base hit to kick off the inning. In his second at-bat, Gloor was able to send one hard back up the middle for his second hit of the day. Got his hands through the zone and produced a hard-hit groundball back through the middle.
Marcus Pollard (2028, Beaverton, Ore.) continued his solid day after a good workout. Made a stellar grab on a line drive back up the middle. He ranged up the middle at shortstop with quick feet and was able to reach out and make an excellent catch. Showing off his athleticism.
Keagan Soliza (2027, Renton, Wash.) carried his strong workout performance into the game on Saturday. Put together a couple of smooth defensive plays at shortstop. Made a good play ranging to his backhand to snatch up the ball and make a quality throw across the diamond for the out. In the next inning, he did it again, ranging deep into the 6-hole, laying out into a full-dive to make a play, recovering to make the throw across that beat the runner at first. In one of his at-bats, he showed an advanced feel of the barrel and quick hands after lacing a ball back into left field on a line. Solid swing.
Jackson Rock (2026, Buckley, Wash.) got extended and drove a pitch to the gap in left-center. Saw it down and hustled out a double on the pitch. Great job from Rock to get the barrel to the baseball, get extended, and then lift the ball into the gap. Solid piece of hitting. Absolutely belted one into centerfield, over the centerfielder’s head, hustling out his second double of the day.
Vincent Dutton (2026, West Jordan City, Utah) went up and got a fastball, driving it deep into left field. He gets the front foot down and rotated well through for a base hit into left field. His second well-struck ball during the outing, after the opposing shortstop made a great play to rob him of a single in the first inning.
James Collier (2027, Silverton, Ore.) got his hands through the zone and destroyed the ball, barreling it up and driving it to deep left field. Saw it roll to the base of the wall, hustling out of the box and getting a triple on the play. Showing off some strength in the frame with this barrel.
Joe Bitonti (2027, Star, Idaho) was able to pick up a base hit on a ball he took the opposite way. He stayed short to the ball and got the barrel to it, seeing it down in left field for a base knock.
