New Westminster’s Max Yuen helped the Bullpen travel team win the under-12 AA division at the Cranberry Classic baseball tournament in Las Vegas last month.

Yuen was named the top defensive player, with no errors, following Bullpen’s 12-10 victory over the Orange County, California Patriots in the tournament final.

The Lower Mainland baseball and softball school finished second in its pool with an unbeaten 3-0-1 record.

Bullpen defeated the Southern California Spikes 9-1 in the quarter-finals before advancing to the tournament final following an 8-3 win over the California Bears.

Other Bullpen notables included White Rock’s Matty Wilkinson, who struck out 19 batters in nine innings to win the top pitcher award.

Cloverdale’s Russell Young was the top batter with a jaw-dropping .706 average at the plate.
