Pryce Pinkins (28, MS) made quick work of his inning punching out 2 and filling up the zone. Was (86-87) and up to 88 with the FB and matched it with two distinct breaking balls. Very strong lower half with an athletic AA. #JrNational@PG_DeepSouth
Nolan Slaymaker (28, FL) working down the rubber with easy velo. Heavy heater at (91-93) and up to 94 and matches with the tight CB in the mid 70s. @Florida_PG#JrNational
AB getting after it this summer. Verified 90 on the mound just a few days ago! Sitting 86-88. Plus breaker. Will be an asset to someone. A great late add for someone still looking for a quality arm in the 26 class!
Got some good work in yesterday, around 70% working on hitting my spots and shorting my arm path so my arm will be on time.

Columbia won back-to-back District 3-5A titles on Thursday, defeating Fleming Island 6-2. The Tigers did it despite pitcher Kyler Keen leaving with an elbow injury and head coach Chris Howard serving the first of a five-game suspension.

Abraham Martinez hits a one-out single, Madden Mann reaches on an error and Casen Maddox is hit by a pitch to load the bases. Slaymaker then rockets a grand slam to left field.
B1: Columbia 4, Fleming Island 0
Taylor then loads the bases with a single and two walks and Nolan Slaymaker delivers a 2-RBI double. It’s a five-run inning for the Tigers, who sent 10 batters to the plate.
Mid-4th: Columbia 8, Newberry 5
Casen Maddox draws a leadoff walk and Slaymaker then lasers a 2-run HR to left field. Tigers are back in front. This has been a wild game.
Mid-6th: Columbia 10, Newberry 9
