The West Coast League’s Moss Adams Player of the Week and Pitcher of the Week, as announced by Commissioner Rob Neyer, are Wenatchee AppleSox outfielder Max Hartman and Yakima Valley Pippins left-hander Carson Judd, both from Washington State University.
Hartman went 7 for 13 with three walks and scored five runs for the AppleSox in the weekend’s season-opening series. He posted multi-hit performances in all three games of Wenatchee’s sweep of the Port Angeles Lefties. This spring, the Alberta, Canada native batted .286 in 48 starts for the Cougars.
Saturday night, Judd pitched six scoreless innings against the Springfield Drifters, allowing just three hits and striking out eight. The southpaw from Spokane is a teammate of Hartman’s at WSU. As a junior this spring, Judd appeared in 14 games out of the bullpen for the Cougars.
About the West Coast League: The West Coast League is the West’s premier summer collegiate baseball league. Encompassing Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, and now Alberta, the WCL showcases pro prospects from major collegiate conferences around the nation. Every summer, the League features unparalleled fan and player experiences, with North America’s best baseball weather and a mix of classic and modern ballparks, all backdropped by the sport’s most stunning scenery. The 2019 MLB amateur draft began with former Corvallis Knight Adley Rutschman selected with the overall No. 1 pick by the Baltimore Orioles, and the 2022 draft featured two West Coast League alumni, Brooks Lee and Gabriel Hughes, among the first 10 picks.
