Cruise Baker

I’m extremely pumped to announce that I’m officially committed to Shelton State Community College to continue my academic and baseball career! First, I want to thank God for guiding me every step of the way—none of this would be possible without Him. I’m beyond grateful to my family, friends, teammates and coaches for always supporting me and helping shape me into the player and person I am today. Thank you to the Shelton State coaching staff for believing in me and giving me this opportunity. #GoBucs #Committed #SheltonState @BPhillips8635 @SheltonStateBB

Lengthy look at RHP Max Kimbrell (@MaxK2030, 2030) who flashed elite stuff on the mound while laboring thru parts of his start. Projectable, lean frame at 6-2, 185-pounds who moves well down the mound with loose AA from the RS. FB: 87-90 mph (late life) CB: 71-73 mph (🔨, S/M) SL: 76-78 mph (tight action) #ALHS26 || @ShooterHunt

Four more team wins 📸: Elena Doepel, Jim Meadows

OF Cruise Baker (@CruiseBaker, 2026) with a loud liner to the pull side. High-end athleticism with power middle to pull side. Violent but controlled uphill path with the barrel. Well-synced with rotational strength in the lower half. @SheltonStateBB recruit. #ALHS26

No surprise as SS Asher Doepel (@AsherDoepel2, 2026) leads off T1 with a laser back up the middle. Sees spin, stays back showing the elite bat speed. Consistent performer out of the leadoff spot. The hit tool is real, as consistent as they come. #PBSFG25 attendee & @NWFRaiders_BSB recruit. #ALHS26

OF Cole Miles (@ColeMiles03, 2026) gets the Tigers on the board with a loud double off the LF wall. Solid plus-count swing. High end athleticism, real juice in the barrel with power to all fields. @JaxStateBB recruit & #PBFG24 attendee. #ALHS26

More of the same from 1B Braden Weathers (@BradenWeathers7, 2027) in his next AB as he scorches this offering over the CF’s head for an RBI triple. The hit tool is real for Weathers. Give him his 5th RBI of the game, pushing the Tiger lead to 11-0, T4. #ALHS26 || @PB_Uncommitted

1B Braden Weathers (@BradenWeathers7, 2027) adds to an impressive day at the plate with yet another 💣, this one down the RF line. Elite backspin off the barrel with juice to all parts of the field. Give him 2 HRs & a 3B on the day with 6 RBIs. #ALHS26 || @PB_Uncommitted
