Raymar Fastpitch from SoCal heads to St. George, UT this weekend for their first tournament at the major level. Raymar finished 3rd in the nation among 70 teams at last year’s ASA “C” Nationals, and was bumped up to the “B” division. They compete in the So Cal ASA A/B league against a number of the teams that will be in Red Rock, getting a trial by fire playing at the upper ranks. They’ll have two of the best young throwers in So Cal, Anthony Martinez of the Amigos and Gerald Pyle of the Rounders, as well as Tommy Obregon, and the veteran of the staff, “Papa Joe” Salcido. Pyle played in last year’s Red Rock tournament with the So Cal Bombers, while the Shaw brothers, Doug and Ken played for Captain Dan’s, the only team to take eventual champion Broken Bow to a regulation 7 innings.
