    Yusef Davis, Jr. of Long Beach, California is among those in Florida this week, competing for a spot on the 2019 USA squad. Yusef arrived quickly onto the international stage in 2017, homering in a key game against Canada, in the Pan Ams in the Dominican Republic. The win helped the USA win bronze medals at the competition, and earn a spot in this year’s Pan Ams at Lima, Peru. Yusef got his start in the game, as a city league teammate of USA veteran Kevin Castillo, who will also be at the camp. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
