Zachary Gonzalez (2012 Southwest HS, Texas) pitched a six-inning no-hitter to lift Almendares to a 8-0 win. Gonzalez struck out six and touched 78 mph. He threw his fastball, curve, and slider for strikes, battled well, and showed a competitive instinct. He is listed at 5-7, 144 pounds

The DBAT Mustangs McCabe and St. Louis Gamers Blue combined for an offensive clinic at Campbell High School.
Robbie Petty (2010 Wylie HS, Texas) showed aggressiveness and opposite-field pop at the plate, going 3-for-5 with two singles and a two-RBI double to lead DBAT. Pretty has a crouched, open stance and a calm, line-drive approach. He is listed at 6-1, 175 pounds.
Kolbey Carpenter (2012 West HS, Texas) went 2-for-4 with a pair of singles and three runs scored, showing quick hands and a good approach. He has a good 5-11, 170-pound frame and works the count as well.
Daniel Cucjen (2012 Shreveport HS, La.) also went 2-for-4, tallying a pair of RBI singles and a stolen base. Cucjen had high hands and a line-drive approach.
Clayton Evans (2012 Rockwood Summit HS, Mo.) managed the lone multi-hit game for St. Louis, going 2-for-4 with two singles. He showcased a nice swing and good contact, maintaining a line-drive approach.

Zac Hardy (2012 Keller HS, Texas) went 3-for-4 at the plate for DBAT, smacking a RBI single, a solo home run and a double. Hardy showed good bat speed and a good swing path that followed the ball well

That is some hitting! Something he will remember forever!
According to the PG wrap, he kept it going today. 2-2 with a double and a few rbi's. Sounds like he's getting hot at the right time!!

Houston Banditos Black in in Semi-Final this morning against Canes Green! Good Luck to them! 
Canes beat Banditos in extras
7/19/2010
C David Houser (2012 AC Flora HS, S.C.) may have made a run for MVP candidacy.
Houser went 2-for-3 with a pair of solo home runs to help send the Canes 16s Green squad to the WWBA 16U national championship finals for the second straight year. Houser's first shot tied the game at 4-4 in the top of the seventh and brought life back into the Canes' dugout after the Banditos had taken a 4-3 lead in the fifth thanks to a two-run bomb by Nick Williams (2012 Galveston Ball HS, Texas).
The Canes then retired the Houston side in order in the bottom of the seventh to force extra innings and proceeded to post a six-run eighth for the win.
LHP Cole Irvin (2012 Servite HS, Calif.) closed out the final 3 1/3 innings, allowing one run on two hits while striking out five.
Canes RF Josh Henderson (2012 home schooled, Va.) also hit well, going 3-for-4 with three singles. 1B Dylan Raymond (2012 Giles County HS, Va.) went 2-for-4 with a singled and a double, and CF Tyler Long (2011 Halifax County HS, Va.) went 2-for-4 with a single and a three-run homer that sparked the Canes' extra-inning rally.
