Wenatchee AppleSox News Release
The West Coast League unveiled Wednesday its 2021 All-WCL Teams. Adam Grob, Enzo Apodaca and Skylar Hales all received all-league honors for their efforts this past summer.
Grob, a junior at South Carolina Upstate, appeared on the All-WCL First Team as a utility player. He appeared in 43 games with the AppleSox and started 27 at shortstop, 10 at third base and five as a designated hitter. Grob led the AppleSox with 10 doubles, 15 extra-base hits and 32 RBI. His four home runs and 38 hits both tied for the team lead.
Apodaca, a redshirt freshman at Gonzaga, earned All-WCL Honorable Mention after leading the league in walks this summer. In addition to his 38 free passes, Apodaca stole 15 bases, tied for fifth-most in the WCL. He hit .319 in his final 40 games and never went back-to-back game without reaching base during that span.
Hales, a sophomore at Santa Clara, earned All-WCL Honorable Mention after a strong summer as a multi-inning reliever. He tossed at least two innings in all nine of his appearances and posted a 2.16 ERA and 43 strikeouts in 25 innings. Hales' most impressive outing came on July 24 when he tossed the 4.1 shutout innings and struck out 10 in relief against the Yakima Valley Pippins.
