We all understand how tough these decissions are. With that being said, please do not push high school baseball deeper into the summer. Most kids and HS coaches are heavily involved in travel baseball. Summer is where most kids will be recruited as well.

It is an absolute shame how little respect people have for following rules. No metal spikes allowed, no seeds, no tobacco, and no use of heavy balls into the fences. Oh and please don’t break the fences/gates when they are locked.
Some new rules at West Bloomfield High School:
No tobacco and no heavy balls being thrown or hit into the fences. There are cameras that will be watching the field and anyone who breaks a rule will be fined $500.

with us the last 2 weeks has been an incredible addition to the lineup and to the dugout. Great hitter, great in the OF, great teammate. Another guy with a bright future at the next level. Kid can flat out play.
