I don't know how Dad04 got hold of that pic, but - the area you see fenced is our visitors bullpen - the conditions are ideal

ps-Orlando, you are right, it's one of the grounds crew
pps-the scouts love seeing pitchers who can "now" run the 60 in 6-flat



lefties? - - - they just aint right!

LOL When I asked John how it was I got the usual, ohh it was fine, can I go out tonight dad?
Just drives a dad nuts!
he had just got done with some rehab so I was not sure to send him, but he ended up getting rated by BA so I have to assume it was a good event.

Catchermom,
We are tied with you!
PG, met a few new people because of this topic.

Just to let the readers know, if it wasn't for PG, I don't know if my son would have hooked up with Clemson so early. Hope all went well in Ft. Myers this weekend, sorry we were unable to attend.
Thanks again.

I am... Well, flabbergasted.

I knew there were a lot, but had no idea of the number of outstanding players involved on the hsbbweb. Some real good ones that I actually know about have not posted yet. If we put together a college or high school team it would be one of the best. Not even a bad pro team.

Please don't feel like you had to attend a PG event to post. This is not about PG, this is about something much more important in my estimation. I'm going to copy this thread and try to keep track of everyone that I can. Let's hope they all reach their dreams.

I really do appreciate the nice comments many of you have made. It would be hard to respond to them all. We know who you are though and have the memory of an elephant when it comes to players. A dead elephant when it comes to everything else.

Great thread!

Jerry,

I just found the hsbaseballweb recently and I am glad I fell into it! What a great resource!!!

My son is:

John Diebolt
5' 10" 180 lb. Sophmore 3rd baseman for Grand Ledge High School, Michigan.

He has attended, 2004 underclass Showcase in Ft.Myers and played on the PG Navy team at the 3003 Underclass WWBA.

Being a northern player, these tournaments and showcases have been a wonderful experience for him. We look forward to attending more in the future.

Thanks for all your efforts, Tim Diebolt
