2013 Draft - Ian Clarkin , Marcus Doi, Tyler Horan, Michael Prichard, Colin Moran


San Diego commit Ian Clarkin (San Diego) went three scoreless innings for the Brewers, striking out five and allowing just one hit. His 88-91 fastball bumped 92, and his 80 mph changeup had good arm speed and fade. He used that pitch effectively against righties, and gave lefties trouble with his big-breaking 73 mph curveball. The 6-foot-3, 190-pound Clarkin said he left his fastball up more than he liked, but he was able to pitch inside against righties well  BA

Sunday's big standout for the Reds was Honolulu outfielder Marcus Doi, a Hawaii recruit. The 6-foot, 185-pound Doi showed a quick, compact stroke and excellent speed on the bases. He ripped a single to left field on an 88 mph fastball in the fourth, then went the other way for an RBI triple that one-hopped the right-field wall in the fifth.- BA

Tyler Horan – Wareham Gatemen – 3B -  With Cape League players competing for the All-Time Cape Cod Baseball League wood bat homerun record, power hitter Tyler Horan (Virginia Tech) blew the competition away with some key runs that earned him this prestigious honor and Coca Cola’s Player of the Week.   Horan’s most impressive performance came from last Saturday’s game versus Chatham, leading Wareham’s explosive offense by cracking two home runs, including a three-run homer on a 2-1 pitch, and tallying six RBI. The Gateman All-Star notched his league-leading 16th homer Sunday night against Falmouth, in the process tying for the All-Time Homerun record with ‘88 Whitecap Dave Staton and ‘79 Kettleer Tim Teufel CCB

Colin Moran for the Bourne Braves played the role of the thorn in the Harbor Hawks side as he went two for four with two doubles. His two-bagger in the bottom of the first allowed two runs to score and gave the Braves a quick advantage. Moran would then finish the Braves scoring the way he started it with a smash to center field which allowed Holy Cross’s Mike Ahmed to score. This would be the fourth and final run of the evening for the home team. http://harborhawks.org/2012/08/braves-tomahawk-hyannis-playoff-chances-with-4-2-victory/
