Didn't Holmes have a kid named Mark Moeves back in the '70s that was a pretty fair country ballplayer??

 

 

Said I would forget some, and did I ever. Mr. Moeves was a heck of a Baseball player.

Highlands-I'm guessing here and I'm not sure before the 90's but:

 

Matt Mason

Kyle Pfetzer

Eric Glaser

Chris Hamblen

Brian Greene

 

Help old people...

 

Big 6'6 Bobby Cowie and the curve ball that broke 6 feet.

Scott Falbush - late 80's

Mike Vories- late 70's

Joe Weyer- 80's unbelievable leadoff hitter.

Quinn Steumple- 89'

Mike Schuett- 87' very good catcher with great arm.

Memory of players I played with and against is fading from the 80's....but these are the ones I remember.

Like Colonel Crazy says, I will also need som help here.

Sure there's more, just hard to remember.

 

The best player I've seen at Holmes is Brandent Englemon, but my history of Bulldog baseball does not go back too far.

I'll think about this some more. I know I'm missing some obvious ones.

HDE could probably put this one together for Cawood High School. I think baseball is his specialty.

How about you Middlesboro guys put together a list of 8 position players and 1 pitcher and see what you think. It's easy to list a couple at each position, but I'm interested to see who you think the tops are.

I never saw him play because quite frankly, he's old , but does Tony Daugherty need to be on this list? I've only heard that he was a good baseball player, have not witnessed it...

Absolutely does belong on that list. A very solid lefty who flat out knows how to play the game. He was All State in Football at Highlands and probably could of been All State in Baseball as well if not had lost his starting lineup position to Timmy Barth.

I can go along with the players you mention with the exception of Gary Kavanaugh. I've known the big lug for far too many years and played entirely too many softball games with his lazy butt. Has he ever slid?

In all seriousness, Gary is one of my closest friends and we've certainly played alot of ball together over the years.

If I'm not mistaken, Kevin Hall didn't really pitch much in high school. I believe he threw some his senior year, but he was usually behind the plate, wasn't he? He was noticed by the Pirates during summer ball when his team went up to Pittsburgh for a tourney.
