Thanks for always making time to speak to our Ambassadors about baseball and life👊🏿
When I was younger, baseball was everything to me. I never thought I would be in state government and certainly never thought I was going to run for Governor. Thank you to my friends CJ and Kelli Stewart for letting me come back and speak to your @leadatlanta ambassadors about how the skills they’re learning in baseball will follow them through life.

Let’s go🔥🔥 Expecting even greater things to come from Ambassador Markelious Foster🫡
‘29 Markelious Foster (GA) puts a solid swing on this to get on base in the late innings. Really athletic player with feel for SS, quick release from low slot & can make plays on the move; bank on the hit tool continuing to develop. #SESuperNIT @PG_Georgia

LEAD Ambassador Justice Morrison is having himself a season🔥⚾️
2027 SS Justice Morrison finds a barrel and drives this back up-the-middle. Shows good length in-zone while getting the barrel on-plane. Savvy defender at the 6 with lateral quickness and athleticism throughout as well. @WestlakeDugout #GAHS25

2027 OF Jaxston Brown splits the gap into deep right-center. Quick, twitchy hands with looseness in the box. Shows off the bat speed and turns on the inside FB. Stretched this into a triple. Solid ‘27 to watch in this class. @SpringsBoysGA #GDC25
