Spring baseball is heating up across Cape Cod and the Islands, and we're seeing some standout performances that deserve recognition. It's time to cast your vote for the Cape and Islands Baseball Player of the Week!
This week's candidates come from all corners of the region, showcasing the depth of talent in local high school baseball. From clutch hitting to dominant pitching, these players have been making their mark on the diamond.
One of the standout performances came from Martha's Vineyard, where first baseman Joe Medeiros and starting pitcher Lathrop Keene led their team to a hard-fought win over Barnstable. Medeiros showed his versatility on the bases, while Keene's delivery kept hitters guessing all game. The Vineyarders' head coach Patrick Moore had his squad locked in, executing defensive tactics that kept Barnstable's batters off balance.
But the action wasn't one-sided. Barnstable's own standouts—including Braedon Costello, who checked the pitch on the base paths, and relief pitcher Levi McNally, who delivered key strikes—kept the game competitive. Third baseman Teegan Hayden charged in to make plays, and Will Johnson tried to beat the throw at the plate, showing the grit that defines Cape baseball.
Whether you're a fan of Martha's Vineyard, Barnstable, or any other school across the Cape and Islands, this is your chance to support the players who are putting in the work. Voting ends Monday, so don't wait—make your voice heard and help crown this week's top performer!
