2B Owen Welch (Menomonie, 2025)
Lean, 5-foot-9, 145-pound frame, produced several barrels during both of Eau Claire’s pool-play games Friday. The speedy right-handed bat went 3-for-6 on the day with a pull-side two RBI single and pull-side gap RBI triple in game one, and a pull-side gap triple in game two. Displayed a twitchy swing, quick hands, and above average bat to ball skills. An overall productive day at the plate for the uncommitted Welch.
