Well over 100 scouts watched the Aflac players workout and the home run contest today. Four Aflac All americans will arrive today. Those four played in the Connie Mack Championship game last night. Midland defeated DBat in that final. DBat won the first game against Midland with Aflac All American Dylan Bundy on the mound. This forced an extra game and this time Aflac All American Dillon Howard went the distance for Midland. Archie Bradley and Brandon Sedell also played in the championship game. All four will arrive in San Diego today and hopefully Bradley will be able to pitch in tomorrow's nationally televised game. He only threw to one hitter last night. Bundy, Bradley and Howard are three of the nation's top prep pitchers this year. All three throw in the mid 90s and Bradley was up to 97 last Tuesday in the Connie Mack finals.
While we are disappointed that these players missed the first few days of the Aflac event, we very much respect their commitment to their teams. Congratulations to both DBat and Midland. Our people there reported that both teams were very impressive, especially the four Aflac All Americans on those two teams.
