Richmond Braves National '10 came from behind to defeat the Jack Cust Diamond Jacks 4-3 at East Cobb. This is the second championship for the organazation and the 1st for the '10 team.

Is Bill Cullen on this team? If so, how did he do?

TD - Bill is on the Braves Scout team. I think Bill played for the Va. Breeze in this tournament.

I remeber playing against this team when I was 14... It was awful, this team is so good, even there backups are better than starters on most teams.

Is that Braves National team a true Richmond team or Virginia team or national team?Just wondering what local kids from the Central Region teams are on it.

Congrats to the Braves on a great accomplishment, From the WWBA website:

Congrats to all the Braves. Every player contributed to the championship. Also, Mitchell Shifflett was named tournament co-mvp. He in now a Aflac invitee as well.

I think you mean the Aflac showcase that is held around the time of the Aflac game. Mitchell is a 2010 guy and won't be eligible for consideration for the Aflac game for another year yet.

I'd like to see Mitchell hang up his track spikes and focus on baseball full time. He has the kind of speed that cannot be taught, and if he's going to hit like he did at East Cobb, who knows where he could end up.

Congrats to the Braves! Really excellent ball club.

the richmond braves national program is based out of richmond VA, but some of the teams have a few players from out of state (md, nc, etc..)
