New Episode LIVE now! - At The Yard Podcast

Los Angeles, Calif. - Each week during the high school season we will announce the SoCal Pitcher and Player of the Week covering the action from the previous week. Numerous players across the state continue to put up impressive numbers both as position players and pitchers on the mound. This year we will be selecting one Pitcher of the Week and one Player of the Week based on recommendations from high school coaches from Southern California. 

Continuing from previous seasons, we will also be highlighting others players from across the state in our Prep Baseball California Diamond Notes that will be released weekly. Our Diamond Notes will highlight other players nominated by high school coaches that are deserving of recognition that were not named Pitcher of Player of the Week. 

PITCHER OF THE WEEK

Sophomore left handed pitcher Stevie Jones of Corona Del Mar High School is the SoCal Pitcher of the Week. The southpaw was absolutely dominant through his 6.1 innings pitched striking out 15 against one hit, one run and a walk. His only hit allowed came with one out in the seventh inning. For the season Jones has a 3-1 record in 29.2 IP with 39 strikeouts, 19 hits, and a 1.18 ERA. For good measure he’s also hitting .450 with 10BB, 7RS, and four stolen bases. 

PLAYER OF THE WEEK

Senior second baseman Logan Asch of El Modena High School is the SoCal Player of the Week after his stellar offensive performance in three games last week. Asch was a combined 9-for-10 at the plate with 4 RBI and three runs scored on the week. One of his hits was a big 2 RBI double. Asch’s hot bat has helped El Modena win five of their last six games with the lone loss being of the one-run variety. For the season Asch is slashing .548/.576/.612 with 7 RBI a pair of walks and doubles, seven runs scored, and only four strikeouts.
