We will publish this info just as soon as all of these variables are in front of us.

The DP staff and Pro Scouts will determine those decisions. *Injury Info, etc: If you have an injury or trip planned that will prohibit your participation at the SABBs, please notify us ASAP. *Bats: This event will require wood bats only. *Two-Way Players: Most primary pitchers will not hit in the games, though they may be allowed to take BP and play in the field.

The Palmetto Games: 2020

The Palmetto Games: Our 13th Annual marquee event was another giant success this weekend as talent from every reach of our state was in attendance to display their abilities in front of 70+ evaluators! For the first time we moved this event away in from the loyal hosts at USC and slid down Hwy 378 to a brand new partner in Historic Riley Park, right in the heart of Sumter, SC. Their hospitality was amazing and so was some of the baseball that we had a front row seat to view! Stay tuned to DP during this week as we take a look back and compile, then churn out info that takes you right to the action!   NEW!  60’s-MPH-POP / Standings / Scoreboard / @diamondprospect  /  Event Alumni
