Sean is a 13 years old from Vacaville, California. He has played baseball for the Cepeda Bulls for the last 2 years. Sean plays anywhere on the field the coach needs him to play but likes to pitch, catch and play infield. Sean has played baseball his entire life and it is truly his passion. This summer he had the privilege of participating in the 4th annual Cepeda Baseball Caribbean Classic in the Dominican Republic. He played on one of the 14U teams which was coached by a college coach from Southern California. This was Sean’s first trip out of the United States and was a lot of fun. Playing with and against boys from all over the United States and the Dominican was an incredible experience – one he will never forget. In addition to great baseball the boys were able to experience the island, the ocean, dune buggies, zip lining, horseback riding and hanging out with his teammates. Th [ ... ]

From time to time we will feature different players that have played in the Classic to give you an idea of who’s participating. This week we want to feature a first-time Classic player, Julian Minor. Julian is 12 years old and is from Fort Worth, Texas. He played this past Spring for the 12U Major Fort Worth Lobos Black who went 33-14 and won the AAYBA 12 Open Diamond Bracket World Series going 6-1. He spent most of his time playing 2B, P, and OF. He will be going to the 7th grade this Fall at McLean Middle School in Fort Worth. He not only excels on the field but in the classroom as well and takes all Pre-AP classes. His favorite team is the Texas Rangers and his favorite players are Adrian Beltre and Rougned Odor. When he’s not playing baseball he loves to play PS4 online with his friends and go exploring.

Due to the major storms (like Hurricane Harvey & Irma) that have impacted the Caribbean and United States, Cepeda Baseball has decided to postpone the inaugural Winter Classic until 2018. At this time our participants impacted by these storms need to focus on their well being. We will continue to plan for our 5th Summer Caribbean Classic and will begin tryouts in October/November once we feel comfortable moving forward. Please follow us for dates and locations. Thank you for your understanding and our thoughts and prayers are with all impacted by the storms.

We are in the process of finalizing tryout dates and locations for our first Christmas Classic. Players in the following age groups, 10/11U, 12/13U, & 14U will be invited to tryout for one of our highly competitive teams that will spend Christmas and New Year’s in the Dominican playing baseball against some of the best teams from the DR. Tentative tryout locations are Northern California, Southern California, North Carolina, Dallas-Fort Worth, Boston and Chicago. Additional locations may be added.

After a hugely successful 4th Annual Caribbean Classic this past July in the Dominican Republic, get ready for our first annual Cepeda Baseball Christmas Caribbean Classic this December where we will be going back to La Romana, DR. This is the first year where we will travel to the beautiful Caribbean Island in December, where we will play against some of the most competitive baseball teams from the Dominican that rival the best competition found in the US. Don't miss out on this once in a lifetime opportunity to not only play some incredible baseball but also spend Christmas and New Year’s in the Dominican where we will be staying at the Grand Bahia Principe La Romana (Top rated by Trip Advisor).
