Despite the absence of 5 Sorcerer players, Sorcerer scored an incredible 44 runs this weekend in the Americas Finest Showcase in San Diego. Catcher
Maya Burns started the home run derby on Friday night with a 3-run homer, her first of the season. Center fielder
Maia Monchek blasted a ball to the very distant right field fence in the fifth game to score another 3-run homer, her first home run of the season. Pitcher
Val Arioto and third baseman
Whitney Shaw each contributed a home run this weekend.
However, it was shortstop
Jordan Wallace who turned in the offensive performance of the weekend and of the season with a record
home runs over the course of the 6 games, including two 3-run homers.
Sorcerer was aided this weekend by sister team
Sorcerer Gold-Pete first-baseman
Kellie Herring who turned in outstanding defensive performances at first base and power hitting at the plate.
Sorcerer remains undefeated this season in showcase play, with a record of
20-0-1*, having scored a whopping
113 runs while giving up 16.
