U.S.A. – At the end of August, Sebastian Walcott was the fourth ranked prospect in the minor leagues.

In the previous game, Walcott led his team to a 5–1 victory over the midland rockhounds.

He finished 2-4 with three RBIs.

In September the 19-year-old shortstop is on a seven-game hitting streak, batting .393 with a 1.056 ops, with a triple, home run, seven RBIs, three steals, and three multi hit games.

The Roughriders improved to 69–62 – and paired with an Amarillo loss, Frisco’s elimination number is one with five games remaining in the second half.

Walcott and other Rangers’ prospects will join the surprise Saguaros in the fall league October 6 – November 15.

The league serves as a showcase for top prospects to gain additional experience against high-level competition.
