Many talented players from the area have come through Baseball Factory’s program including Salem’s Maverik Buffo. In May of 2012, Maverik attended an Under Armour Baseball Factory National Tryout, where his performance earned him a selection to the Baseball Factory National World Series at Pirate City in August of that year. This four-day event took place at the Spring Training home of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Baseball Factory’s professional staff worked with players from morning until night on all aspects of their game. In addition, players participated in scrimmages and other live game situations. Maverik, a right-handed pitcher and third baseman, graduates from Spanish Fork High School this year and will continue his academic and baseball success at Brigham Young University in Provo, UT.
Baseball Factory’s staff of professional scouts, former professional players, and former college coaches will evaluate players on the field and lead a college recruiting question and answer session. Those in attendance will learn about the college recruiting process and the steps players should take in order to increase their chances of playing college baseball and receiving scholarships. Top players from the tryout may be selected to compete with Baseball Factory and Under Armour at the Baseball Factory Training & Competition in Arizona, Pirate City Christmas, and the Pirate City World Series.
