Quotable:
Arcadia pitcher, Casey Spencer: “Today, I was able to really command my fastball. Then once I needed to throw my offspeed, it was working well as well as my change-up. This year, my velocity is very dominant, as well as my off-speed. I’m able to throw 3-4 pitches for strikes every game and I have a great team behind me. I’m able to pound the zone, because I know they will make the plays behind me.”
