Home Plate Chili Dogs Crowned Champs in Low Scoring Affair


MARIETTA, Ga. – The 15U Southeast Select Championship came to a close Monday night with the Home Plate Chili Dogs 15U Dyal and Georgia Jackets 16U American facing off in the championship game. It was a low scoring pitching duel between the two teams as Home Plate ultimately came out victorious with a 2-1 win. The Chili Dogs completed a clean sweep of the tournament field going 6-0 during the week.



The Chili Dogs were not tested in their pool play games finishing with 30 runs scored and allowing only four and were awarded the third seed with a first-round bye in bracket play. In the quarterfinal, they came out with a 9-1 win behind their starting pitcher, Bryce Alewine, working five innings while striking out four. They were powered to a 4-1 win in the semifinal game over 643 DP Bishop behind Kaden Brown’s big day at the plate going 2 for 3 including a home run.

In the championship game, the Jackets opened up the scoring in the top of the first after a leadoff single by Kevin Jackson Jr. who came around to score on Manny Ramos’ double. The Chili Dogs answered in the bottom half of the first with a run of their own to tie the game. Kaleb Cost reached base with a leadoff walk and moved to third base on consecutive passed balls. With one out, Wayne King drove in Cost with a self-sacrificing grounder to the right side of the infield.

The second inning went by quickly with starting pitchers, Brandon Fears (Jackets) and Avery Brown (Home Plate) sitting down the opposing hitters in order. The Chili Dogs scored the final run of the game in the bottom of the third inning, as James Dubose singled to start the inning and moved to second base after a sacrifice bunt by Kaleb Cost. Wayne King was the hero for Home Plate with an RBI single scoring Dubose and ultimately giving them all they needed to win the championship.

Relief pitcher, Evan Harrah, was excellent in his two innings of work closing the door on the Jackets batters. The Jackets had an opportunity in the bottom half of the seventh with two men on with one out but were unable to score.

The Home Plate Chili Dogs 15U Dyal are 2020 PG 15U Southeast Select Champions.

Mason Trucks, of the Home Plate Chili Dogs, was awarded the tournament MVPitcher this week with eight innings pitched, five strikeouts, allowing no earned runs.

MARIETTA, Ga. – The 2020 PG 16U Southeast Select Championship field started with 36 teams Friday June 24th but was cut down to the final two teams standing Monday afternoon. The Georgia Bombers 16U and the Ninth Inning Royals Honeycutt 16U battled it out for the championship trophy on field one at the East Cobb Baseball Complex. The Bombers came out with a 10-5 victory after a seven run sixth inning for their second PG championship of the summer.

This 4-1 win propelled them into the championship game against Ninth Inning.

The scoring did not take long with Ninth Inning scoring one run in the top of the first. Tournament MVP, Cayden Gaskin, singled and then scored after Ryan McTighe reached first base on an error. The Bombers bats did not wake up until the bottom half of the second when they tied the game 1-1. Patrick McCavitt reached base safely after a bunt and then made it to third base after stealing second and reaching third on a pass ball. Alex Urias singled scoring McCavitt for their first run.

Starting pitcher for the Bombers, Brett Barfield, sat down the Ninth Inning hitters in order in the top of the third inning. The Bombers then scored two more runs to make the score 3-1 in the bottom of the third as Parker Brosius and Tyler Triche both doubled to start off the inning and came around to score after a timely two RBI single by Riley Stanford.

Ryan McTighe continued his big day at the plate with a leadoff single and came around to score after an RBI double by Sadir Ryan.

ECB Astros 17U Orange Bring Home Another Championship

MARIETTA, Ga. – The East Cobb Astros 17U Orange squad finished up another tournament Monday afternoon crowned as champions for the 2020 PG 18U Southeast Select Championship. The Astros took on a pesky D-BAT ELITE 2020 team in the championship game and were able to come out with a victory 3-2. This is the Astros first tournament win of the summer, but they will be adding to an already impressive trophy case for the ECB Astros organization.

Only the five pool winners were awarded a seed in the bracket. The Astros were given the two seed and played the Bullpen RedStitch 18U in the semifinal game. They used a three run sixth inning to ultimately advance to the championship with a final score of 5-4. They took advantage of three walks to load the bases and two pass balls to score two of their runs. Carter Wright delivered the knockout blow with an RBI double scoring Caleb Ellard.

The championship game featured starting pitchers, Walker Noland (Astros) and Albert Pallasch (D-BAT), each of whom worked efficiently on the mound and kept the opposing batters guessing.

With one out, John-David Fritch hit a ball on the ground enabling Gehrig Ebel to score from third base for their second run.

With the bases loaded and no outs, Samuel Smith delivered a timely hit to score Matthew Strand to tie the game, the last time either team scored before going into extra innings.

Relief pitcher for the Astros, Ed Manke, entered in the bottom half of the sixth and shut down the D-bat hitters for three innings as the Astros were able to score a run in the top half of the eighth to ultimately win the game and be crowned champions. Michael Mitchler led off the top half of the eighth with a single and scored thanks to a clutch one out triple off the bat of Justin Bogard.

Midwest Invitational Scout Notes
Tyler Kotila
Article Image
Creighton Tuzzio (2024, Clarinda, Iowa) took the ball in the semi-final game and was able to get on the bump and carve for his team. Tuzzio is a taller 6-foot-6, 210-pound frame with plenty to like in the operation. The right-handed pitcher has a slower and more controlled operation as he works through the delivery. He lifts the leg up around the belt and then works through a three-quarters release with good whip through it. The fastball worked up to 86 mph on the fastball and held in the low- to mid-80s. He creates some angle on it with the taller & projectable frame. It runs arm-side and can be a problem for right-handed hitters. He also showed a low-70s curveball with a bigger 11/5 tilt to it and good depth to miss some bats. The Iowa Western commit threw 5.0 innings, allowing just 1 run, with 4 walks and 6 strikeouts to his credit.   There’s no surprise here, but...

Michael Flores (2026, NC) looking great through 4 innings pitched with 11 k’s. Great command and completely missing barrels. #2023WWBACoastalSophmoreFallInvatational pic.twitter.com/Oqd3WD0E05 — PG Coastal Scouting (@PG_Coastal) September 24, 2023 Michael Flores (2026, Mooresville, NC) put on an electric performance to watch for the SBA Futures 2026 in their matchup versus the Carolina Reds. The 5-foot-10, 175-pound, RHP did his job for his team today to keep them in the game. Flores throws with a high leg lift and creates some good motions towards the plate with his whippy action. Flores has a great feel for the zone and pounded strikes at a 66% rate. Flores generated swing and miss after swing and miss and it was clear he was in control out there on the mound. He sat in the 70-mph range to 79-mph range with his fastball with the ability to pinpoint it wherever he pleased....

James Sherry (’26, Aiken, S.C.)- the 6-foot-1, 155-pound right-handed pitcher tossed a complete game for Xtreme Xposure Baseball-Bennett in an 8-1 win over 2 Way Athletics 16U. A primary outfielder, Sherry finished with 15 strikeouts and just one walk while controlling the zone at a 65% strike rate. Appearing in only his second PG tournament, Sherry turned in another great pitching performance after being selected to the All-Tournament Team at the 2023 16U PG Southeast Labor Day Classic.

A high speed look at this 2B from Keon Johnson... #WWBAWorlds @PG_Georgia https://t.co/Ejl8GirIgk pic.twitter.com/ate7ro35cp — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) September 24, 2023 Keon Johnson (2026, Macon, Ga.) started off the morning loud, going down to get a pitch down and smoking a double that split the opposite field gap at a 92 mph exit velocity. The shortstop has one of the best hit tools in the class and has tremendous feel for the barrel. The swing is quiet and simple, staying loose through the zone. The ball jumps and the parts really work. At short, Johnson looked silky with good actions, range, and plenty of arm strength across. The game comes easy for the Georgia native, and still just 15, the all-around game is very well-refined for the age.  Jaxson Wood (2026, Hoover, Ala.) finished batting .500 over the tournament, including three extra-base hits.

Deep South Fall Invitational Scout Notes

Alex Dorso
Article Image
Patrick Kovacs (2026 Knoxville TN) was dominant in his outing in game two of pool play for Exposure National. The southpaw tossed three scoreless innings allowing two hits while striking out eight. He showed plus command of the fastball dotting it to both sides of the plate while working off the corners at times. Patrick sat 75-78 topping at 79 multiple times throughout. He mixed in a tight breaking ball with two plane movement that he had no problem mixing in any count keeping the opposing hitters off balanced in the box. Coming from a mid 3/4s slot there was some deception within the operation making it tough to pick the fastball up out of the hand. The frame has plenty of athleticism within with plenty of more room for additional strength as he continues to mature. Kovacs should be a fun follow as he continues to progress through high school. Ryan Riojas (‘26 TN) drives this...

Jack Harley (2024, Mendham, NJ) put together a dominant performance at the plate in the WWBA NEQ, leading his team to a coveted Jupiter bid while also earning MVP-honors. The 6-foot-1 left-handed hitter showcased his advanced bat-to-ball skills on several occasions. He batted .643 with two doubles, a home run and six stolen bases. Harley utilizes a repeatable, synced-up stroke with clean separation into launch. He has a great feel for the barrel and creates good strength at impact to all parts of the diamond. The future Hokie recorded a hit in all six of his games and proved to be a reliable bat at the top-of-the-order for Clubhouse 2024 EvoShield. Harley’s build offers a good balance of strength and athleticism, making him a well-rounded prospect with intriguing upside moving forward.  .#VandyBoys commit Aiden O’Connell (‘24, NH) is back on the bump in the #NEQ...

Sophomore WWBA Scout Notes: Days 1-2

Vincent Cervino

Nathan Caldwell (2026, Columbia, S.C.) looked the part in the batter’s box as the Team Elite three-hole hitter had one of the hardest hit balls of the day. There’s really impressive bat speed and the ability to create violence and rotational acceleration through contact. He missiled a single during the game and there looks like there’s going to be pretty significant impact potential long term. He’s a strong kid with good indicators and offensive tools to like. Drew Borkowski (2026, Huntley, Ill.) showed plenty to like in the arm as he got the start in game one on the day for GRB. At 6-foot-1, 170-pounds he’s got a lanky frame with long limbs and plenty of room for physical projection. It’s a quick arm with solid arm speed throughout and he opened up sitting 85-87 mph with the fastball. The fastball showed good sinking life and he used it to get a lot...
