2013 Draft-Notes – Honk-Ball, NECBL-POW, CCL, Brady Corless


Trae Turner went 0-1 with 3 walks and 2 steals

 Michael Conforto went 2-3

 Marco Gonzales struck out 10 batters over 7 innings, allowing 1 run on 3 hits and 2 walks

 David Berg pitched 2 shutout innings, striking out 2 

Laconia third baseman Danny Collins and North Adams pitcher Matt Longfield claimed the NECBL’s Player and Pitcher of the Week for the period ending on Saturday, July 14th. Collins, who is the League’s average and home run leader, hit .450 and slugged 1.150 in five games. He slammed three doubles, a triple and three homers while driving in eight. More importantly, Collins’ homer in Laconia’s 13-4 win against Mystic on July 14th tied the 14 year-old NECBL record held jointly by Gil Barkman and Aaron Fera. The sophomore comes to Laconia after an outstanding spring for Troy. An ABCA second team All-Region pick, Collins hit .318, slugged .562 and ranked in the top four in the Sun Belt Conference in doubles, homers, RBI and total bases. Collins also won the NECBL’s Player of the Week for the period of June 9th to June 15th. - http://ht.ly/1loGAF  

It is clear to everyone that the Cape Cod League is the best league in the country. What is amazing to an outsider like me is just the sheer number of prospects playing in the league.  From the number 1 hitter in the lineup to the 9th place hitter, each team is filled with the best players in the country. This past weekend several top notch players all turned in great statistical games. Team wise, the hottest team in the league is probably the Cotuit Kettleeers right now. Despite being defeated last night, they are still 8-2 in their last 10 games. July 15th Games - CSB
