Royal vs Grey
Jayden Galvan (2030 C, Bryan, TX) kept his barrel in the zone for a long time and laced a ball to the opposite field for a knock. Let the ball travel well and covered the outer half of the plate.
Kade Curry (2031 C, Magnolia, TX) got the foot down early and stayed back on the CB, smashed it to the left-center field gap for a double. Has a good feel for the barrel with solid bat speed out front. Later in the game, he turned on an inside heater, smashing a single to the pull side.
Brady Herrera (2030 SS, San Antonio, TX) turned on a mistake pitch and got it to the wall for a loud double. Has a smooth stroke with a level path working through the zone. Good-sized kid with more room to fill. Added another barrel later in the game, smashing a single through the six-hole.
Donovan Jones (2030 OF, Sugar Land, TX) has undeniable bat speed, smashing the ball through the left side for a hard single. Also earlier in the at-bat, he turned on an inside FB and launched a ball about 7 feet outside the pole but was way into the trees. Launched a ball into the pull side gap for an RBI double. Been one of the best bats here in this game, taking good hacks.
Mason Edgar (2030 MIF, Montgomery, TX) hit a single on the screws, sending a liner through the left side. Good athlete in the box with quick hands that can turn on the inner half.
Grayson Hiebert (2031 1B, Baton Rouge, LA) got a good pitch to hit and went back up the middle for a hard single. Has a solid feel for the bat-to-ball and is good at staying up the middle. Turned on another fastball for a single through the four hole.
Carson Dyer (2030 SS, Spiro, OK) got his swing going on time and smashed a single up the middle. Has a smooth swing that has good direction to it, not doing too much.
Sebastian Cortez (2030 SS, Brownsville, TX) is playing well here in game one, smacking a hard liner over the 3B head for a single. Stays in his backside well and whips the barrel out front.
Cooper Bostick (2030 3B, Abbeville, LA) worked through a fastball on the outer half, sending a line drive to right field for a single. Has good bat-to-ball and likes to attack the fastball.
Hudson Hicks (2030 C, Roland, OK) hammered a missile into the opposite field gap for a stand-up triple. Has some barrel lag through the zone and has the ability to use the entire field.
