2013 Draft-Notes – Kyle Montell, Jeff Thompson, SCBL-WS,

Kyle Montell, RHP, Pickerington North HS, Class of 2013  - 6-foot-2, 184-pound right-handed pitcher. Looks the part. Uses quick arm action through a high ¾ arm slot. Delivery requires some effort. Fastball sits 83-87 mph. Curveball sits 68-70 mph with gradual 12/6 break. Shows good depth to it. Also uses a 79-80 mph cutter with good downward bite. Changeup sits 72-75 mph. Tends to slow down arm action, but shows good arm side run. PBR 

On a misty night at Doran Park, Jeff Thompson (Louisville) overpowered the Harwich Mariners, pitching a six inning no-hitter, as the Braves won, 9-0. “I got my change-up going…it was working for me really well today,” Thompson said, “Austin [Wynns] caught a great game and I was able to execute.” In addition to keeping Harwich hitless, Thompson fanned the first four batters of the night and finished with nine strike outs in total. http://bournebraves.org/baseball/thompson-no-hits-harwich/

The Ballantyne Smokies (25-16) refused to relinquish the lead after grabbing it early against the Carolina Chaos (21-19), recording a 12-2 victory on Friday at Ardrey Kell HS. Seven runs in the first three innings allowed the Ballantyne Smokies to put the game away early. A two-run home run by Brian Holberton in the first inning and an RBI single by Josh Greene and a two-run single by Holberton during the second inning helped the Ballantyne Smokies put some runs on the board early. Holberton racked up five RBIs on three hits for the Ballantyne Smokies. Lou Trosch picked up the win for the Ballantyne Smokies. Trosch pitched seven innings and allowed two earned runs, five hits and one walk while striking out one. Casey Cooperman (2-4) took the loss for the Carolina Chaos.
