Area Code Baseball 2009 - Long Beach, CA

Taylor was one of 30 top players selected from the Northwest as a pitcher to represent the MLB's Washington Nationals prospect team at the Area Code 2009 Tournament in Long Beach, CA. The first day the team played a practice games at USC's stadium. The team played six games over six days and finished with a record of 2 wins, 2 ties, and 1 loss. Major league and college scouts filled the stands throughout the week. Mom & Dad made the trip and a vacation of it as well and couldn't be more proud of his performance which saw him allowing no runs, no walks, couple of K's, and giving up only three hits... against some of the better high school players from around the country. http://www.areacodebaseball.com
