The group features numerous standouts from powers such as defending College World Series champion Vanderbilt, runner‐up Virginia and 17 Division I conferences nationwide. Interestingly, there were no returning position players from the first team of the 18th annual 2014 NCAA postseason All‐ America selections, but returning No. 1 crew starting pitchers Blake Fox (12‐0 record, 1.46 ERA) of Rice and Casey Bloomquist (12‐2, 1.56 ERA) of Cal Poly highlight a solid group of mound standouts returning for 2015 from the All‐ America ranks. They are joined by post‐2014 second‐team stalwarts outfielder DJ Stewart (.351, 7 homers, 50 RBIs) of Florida State and starting pitchers Kyle Funkhouser (13‐3, 1.94 ERA) of Louisville, Atlantic Coast Conference 2014 Pitcher of the Year Nathan Kirby (9‐3, 2.06) of Virginia and 2014 Big 12 Conference Pitcher of the Year Preston Morrison (9‐4, 1.32 ERA) of TCU on the first unit of the 2015 NCBWA elite squadron. Also in that set of standouts are starting pitchers Walker Buehler (12‐2, 2.64) and Carson Fulmer (7‐1, 1.98) of Vanderbilt along with relief aces Riley Ferrell (3‐1, 0.79 ERA, 15 saves) of TCU, David Berg (the 2013 NCBWA Stopper of the Year, (3‐ 2, 1.50 ERA, 11 saves) of UCLA, Bryan Garcia (7‐4, 1.75 ERA, 15 saves) of Miami (Fla.), and Matt Ditman (5‐6, 1.83 ERA, nine saves) of Rice. The entire first team pitching staff consists of underclassmen except for the senior Berg. Among the first‐team position players are such nationally‐recognized stalwarts as Florida Gulf Coast 2B Jake Noll (.367, 18 2B, 29 RBI, 25SB), San Diego State 3B Ty France (.356, 18 2B, 5 HR, 45 RBI), Vanderbilt SS Dansby Swanson (.333, 27 2B, 2 3B, 3 HR, 34 RBI), Michigan utility player Jacob Cronenworth (1.75 ERA, 12 saves, 2 HR, 28 RBI, 19 SB), and FSU’s Stewart dot the roster. The initial two units also contain starting pitchers with a combined win‐loss mark of 115‐26 and relief hurlers with a composite 103 saves. The three teams chosen with consultation with individual schools’ media relations offices and the NCBWA All‐America committee also boast the likes of 2013 SEC Freshman of the Year and Brooks Wallace Award SS Alex Bregman of LSU, All‐Mountain West Conference 1B Austin Byler (.326, 14 2Bs, 14 HR, 54RBIs) of Nevada, All‐Big 12 Conference 1B Eric Gutierrez (.302, 18 2B, 12 HR, 58 RBI) of Texas Tech, All‐Atlantic Coast Conference OF Joe McCarthy (.301, 16 2B, 6 HR, 49RBI) of Virginia, catchers Zach Collins (.298, 14 2B, 11 HR, 54 RBI) of Miami, Fla., and All‐Missouri Valley Conference Paul DeJong (.349, 21 2B, 9 HR, 48 RBI) of Illinois State, and All‐Ohio Valley Conference Travis Stout (3‐ 1, 1.82 ERA, 15 saves) of Jacksonville State, among others. The selections prior to the historic 156th season of intercollegiate baseball will be striving to make the 69th annual DI World Series in Omaha, Neb., on June 13‐23/24, along with the prestigious Dick Howser Trophy presented by the St. Petersburg (Fla.)

(NCBWA) --- UCLA relief pitcher David Berg is the 2013 recipient of the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association’s Stopper of the Year Award, the NCBWA announced Saturday prior ot the beginning of the College World Series. Berg, the 2013 Pac-12 Pitcher of the Year, has posted a record of 7-0 with 21 saves while currently leading the nation in ERA with a 0.88 mark. Berg's 21 saves are also a new UCLA single-season record and rank tied for second in all of Division I baseball, two shy of tying the single-season NCAA Division I record. In addition, he is second in the country in WHIP (walks and hits per innings pitched) with a mark of 0.80 and has allowed the second-lowest opposing batting average (.194) in the conference. The sophomore from Covina, Calif., has also given up fewest runs (7) and walks (8) in the Pac-12, while appearing in the most games in the conference (46). At one point this season, the first team All-American did not allow a run in 37 consecutive innings, which was the longest consecutive scoreless innings streak in the nation this season. In the postseason this year, Berg has recorded three saves while finishing all five of UCLA's NCAA postseason games. The right-hander has helped UCLA post a current 44-17 overall record and a 21-9 record in the Pac-12 Conference.

    LINE DRIVES THE NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 48, No. 3, Apr. 17, 2009) The President’s Message By NCBWA President Joe Dier NCBWA Membership: With the 2008-09 hoops season now in the record books, the collegiate spotlight is focusing more closely on the nation’s baseball diamonds. Though we’re heading into the final month of the season, there are still plenty of twists and turns ahead on the road to Omaha and the 2009 NCAA College World Series. The NCAA will soon be announcing details of next month’s tournament selection announcements naming the regional host sites (May 24) and the 64-team tournament field (May 25). To date, four different teams have claimed the top spot in the NCBWA’s national Division I polls --- Arizona State, Georgia, LSU, and North Carolina. Several other teams have graced the No. 1 position in other national polls. The NCAA’s mid-April RPI listing has Cal State Fullerton leading the 301-team pack, with 19 teams sporting 25-win records through games of April 12. For the record, New Mexico State tops the wins list with a 30-6 mark. As the conference races heat up from coast to coast, the NCBWA will begin the process for naming its All- America teams and the Divk Howser Trophy (see below). We will have a form going out to conference offices and Division I independents in coming days. Last year’s NCBWA-selected team included 56 outstanding baseball athletes, and we want to have the names of all deserving players on the table for consideration for this year’s awards.

Savage’s seventh recruiting class at UCLA features five pitchers, four infielders, one catcher and one outfielder. “These incoming players are fantastic additions to our program, and we are really looking forward to seeing what they can do at the collegiate level,” Savage said. “We have brought in a balanced recruiting class, from a pitcher and position player perspective. Our coaching staff believes that these guys will be able to contribute from the start.” Two of the 11 incoming players, Kevin Kramer and Jake Ehret, were selected in the MLB Draft last June. Kramer, a freshman infielder from Turlock, Calif., was selected in the 25th round of the MLB Draft by the Cleveland Indians. Ehret, a freshman right-hander from San Dimas, Calif., was chosen in the 37th round by the Florida Marlins. Outfielder Eric Filia-Snyder, a four-year varsity standout at Edison High School in Huntington Beach, Calif., twice earned Sunset League MVP acclaim in addition to securing first-team All-CIF accolades as a senior. In addition to Ehret, the group features right-handed pitchers David Berg (Bishop Amat HS), Michael Kerman (Long Beach City College) Zack Ortiz (Cypress HS) and left-hander Grant Watson (Bakersfield Centennial HS).

    BOOSTERBOOSTER BITSBITS + The Official Publication of the L.A. Dodgers Booster Club August 2019 www.dodgersboosterclub.com Volume 62 Issue 8 President's Corner . JJ Sells Fellow Boosters - As I write this article, the All-Star game has concluded and the second half of the season is about to start and I thought before it did, I would reflect on what has happened in the first half. First and foremost, this team has played fantastic baseball for the most part. Cody Bellinger, Max Muncy and Alex Verdugo have been better than expected. Ryu has pitched out of his mind. Walker Buehler is proving that last year was no fluke. Turner, Taylor and Maeda have been solid and the bullpen, although the weakest part of the team, has held its own for the most part. Kershaw has re-invented himself as a pitcher and continues to pitch at an all- star level. All of this has been done without Corey Seager and AJ Pollack for most of the first half. But what does it all mean? Nothing. Because what happened in the first half doesn't get you to the finish line. You still have to perform in the second half. To see what happens, join us as we experience it together. As always, I hope to see you at the ballpark! Ticket Talk . Mae Rosenkranz The second half of the season is well on its way and getting ready soon for the homestretch. If you don't have all your tickets yet, look at the TeamUp app or give JJ Sells a call to order some tickets and then send your payment to me.
