Game Highlights Green vs Gold
11/5/2017
Eric Dluzniewski (2018 RHP, Houston, TX) showed plus command of all three pitches including a fastball that was up to 86 and a sharp curveball at 74 with biting action. He punched out 6 and allowed a single hit in three innings of work, without allowing a run.
Noah Miller (2018 OF, Chaska, MN) reached base three times going 2-for-4 at the plate with a RBI single in his second at-bat of the day.
Eric "Koehler" Vandament (2018 OF, Austin, TX) turned in a 1-for-3 effort at the plate with a RBI triple down the first base line.
Christopher Sims (2018 C, El Paso, TX) picked up RBI in two separate at-bats on the day with a 1-for-4 effort at the plate.
Caleb Stark (2018 SS, Austin, TX) was 2-for-4 at the plate with a pair of doubles, two stolen bases and a run scored. The first double found grass in the right-centerfield gap while the second was off the left field wall.
Batting Practice Highlights
11/4/2017
Alex Barnett (2018 1B, Lufkin, TX) is a left handed hitter who has a versatile and adjustable swing that enabled him to square up just about every pitch in BP with line drives to all fields. Like many left handed hitters, he looked like he especially liked the low and inside pitch and crushed some of those.
Jeffrey Padavick (2018 SS, Austin, TX) takes an aggressive right handed swing and creates good bat speed that led to solid middle of the field contact when he was on time.
Ixon Cintron (2018 C, Cypress, TX) has good present strength and a short and simple swing that enabled him to make consistent hard pull contact with some bat speed behind it.
Jessie Gonzalez (2018 SS, Robstown, TX) weighs only 140 pounds and could definitely get stronger but he had perhaps the nicest swing of all the uncommitted players, with really loose hitter's hands and the ability to drive the ball to both gaps.
Game Highlights Gold vs Green
11/4/2017
Dylan Smith (2018 RHP, Stafford, TX) punched out 4 batters in two innings of work on the mound while topping out at 89 mph. The MVP pitcher of the 2017 South Qualifier once again showed feel for his 82 mph changeup and curveball at 75.
Arthur (AG) Yowell (2018 RHP, Dripping Springs, TX) struck out 6 in 2 innings on the mound, allowing 2 hits and no runs. With a fastball that topped at 90 mph, Yowell showed feel for his changeup and breaking ball as well.
Grant Plunkett (2018 C, Hurst, TX) made consistently hard contact from an open stance with solid barrel to ball skills. Plunkett was 2-for-4 at the plate with well struck balls to left and up the middle.
Caleb Stark (2018 SS, Austin, TX) had quite a day at the plate, going 3-for-4 with a homerun to left and other well struck balls. Stark shows good bat speed with and a feel for barreling the ball up with pop in game action.
Stephen Lynch (2018 RHP, Cibolo, TX) is listed as a primary pitcher but showed some pop in the bat at the plate as well. With a hard ground ball up the middle and a loud double to left field, Lynch showed that he has some juice in the bat.
