LI Titans hold on to win, 5-3 pic.twitter.com/wbqdQdH0NJ — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) September 21, 2019 The LI Titans overcame an early first inning deficit and held off a late-inning rally by the Kings Park Knights to win 5-3 in the 12U Northeast Elite tournament. In the bottom of the first, the Knights used a lead off single by Anthony Lobasso, a stolen base and an RBI ground out to take a 1-0 lead. That lead did not last very long as the Titans scored two runs in the top of the second on a two-run single by Kip Zacharia. It was a two-out hit that scored Trey Hansen and Derek Minden. Zacharia was thrown out attempting to stretch his hit into a double. In the top of the third, the Titans extended their lead to 4-1 on a big two-run double by Charlie Pipa. They added another insu...
12U New York Angels win 12-2 in a run-rule victory. Steven Santos went 2-for-2 with a walk and 3 RBI including two triples. Interview Presented by @MuddyLocker1 pic.twitter.com/EKt7jiTs6v — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) September 21, 2019 Sometimes big-time sluggers can just take over a game as we’ve seen plenty of time during the 2019 MLB season. That was the case this afternoon at Plainedge Park when Steven Santos was a man among boys in the 12U Northeast Elite tournament. The 12-year-old went 2-for-2 with 3 RBI including two triples in a 12-2 run-rule victory for the New York Angels over Dodgers Nation. He got their offense going in the bottom of the first on his first triple of the afternoon. He drove in T.J Bradford, who drew a two-out walk. After the triple, he scored on...
Here’s Jordan Konig on his walk off hit pic.twitter.com/CqzlDU8pa4 — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) September 21, 2019 What an outstanding game was played tonight to open up the Blue Chip Prospect Northeast Elite 12u tournament. The game was played at Cantiague Park and featured several lead changes, but ultimately it was Jordan Konig who would deliver a walk-off single in the bottom of the sixth inning to deliver the 10-9 victory for the Commack Crushers. The game began with the Tri-State Arsenal getting out to a quick 2-0 lead thanks to a two-run single by Alex Wayne to drive in Thomas Walsh and Jayden Eavens. It seemed like it would be all Arsenal tonight but the Commack squad brought their sticks too. They immediately tied it up on an RBI single by Ryan Bush, who came aroun...

I put them together because they are similar players. Both are high-end power pitchers that look ready for the varsity level right now. 78-80 MPH at this age is pretty rare and given their size, I wouldn’t be surprised if they eventually were in the 88-90 MPH range in three years. Stemmler also show...

Two of the premier recruiting organizations have agreed to a have a working relationship. Blue Chip Prospects and Prep Baseball Report-NY have come to an agreement to co-host a series of showcases through out the 2017 year–in order to offer an unparalleled opportunity for high school players. “This relationship allows us to combine our resources to optimize college exposure for the amateur baseball community,” said BCP President Jim Clark.
