Boras Classic South: Thursday Notebook
April 6, 2018
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, CA—The Boras Classic South championship is set, with JSerra HS, CA, matching up with La Mirada HS, CA, Friday night. JSerra beat Harvard-Westlake HS, CA, to advance while La Mirada topped South Hills HS, CA.
JSerra was able to stifle Harvard-Westlake’s tough lineup, as RHPs Tim Scarlett and Ryan Farmer held the Wolverines to just three hits. The Lions got on the board when OF Nino Vultaggio crushed a triple to deep center field, scoring two. In the third, a botched pickoff play gave JSerra a 3-0 lead. Harvard-Westlake scratched out a run in the fourth, but just couldn’t muster anything more.
Scarlett, a 2020 committed to San Diego State, started on the mound and pitched mostly at 80-81. He has a big, strong frame at 6-foot-5, 212 pounds. He has a high leg kick, long arm swing and short stride down the mound. His curveball had slurvy break at 68-70.
