 | Infielder Shane Zeile will replace Spencer O'Neil in the WCL All-Star game |
“Spencer would have been a great addition to the all-star team and he was looking forward to representing the Sweets tonight,” said Sweets general manager Zachary Fraser. “However, our first concern is to keep players healthy and so the league decided to replace him on the roster with Shane Zeile.”
Zeile is currently leading the Sweets in batting average. He is hitting .317 with eight doubles, two triples, and four homeruns. Zeile has 26 hits and 16 RBI in 21 regular season games for the Sweets.
The 2012 West Coast League All-Star Game , presented by NAPA Auto Parts will take place at Borleske Stadium tonight at 7:35 P.M., and the homerun derby, presented by Columbia REA will begin at 5:30 P.M. Gates open at 5:00 and tickets for the event can be purchased at the Sweets Shoppe in Downtown Walla Walla before 3:00 P.M. today or at the Borleske Stadium box office starting at 3:30 P.M.
