Another action shot from this past Saturday at the ESPN Wide World of Sports
complex in Orlando Florida. Like I said in a previous post from this week I truly enjoy shooting the Gulf Coast
League Games. The players seem to give it all they have every single play.

This the second part of my favorite photos from the Gulf Coast League from this year. I took the photo above of Spencer Hylander at the last GCL game I did this year covering the GCL Nationals and GCL Astros in Viera, Florida. I had a chance to meet Spencer’s dad at the game that afternoon and it was a pleasure getting to know him. Thats one of the things I like about covering Minor League Baseball is the people you meet. Below is a few more of my favorites.

Daniel Coury of the GCL Braves -Scott Jontes/MiLB.com
Keeping with the Gulf Coast League theme from my last post I thought I would put up some of my favorite GCL photos from this year. The photo above of Daniel Coury of the GCL Braves is my favorite photo from the GCL this year. I knew when I pressed the shutter this was going to be a good one, I really liked the way he made the throw to first. I took the photo at the Braves Spring Training complex at Disney’s Wide World of Sports. The photos below are the first half of my favorite GCL photos from this year.

Carlos Perez of the Gulf Coast League Blue Jays -Scott Jontes/MiLB.com
Baseball America has picked their top 20 players from the Gulf Coast League from this season. From that list I had photos of 2 players in the Top 20, Carlos Perez of the Gulf Coast Blue Jays and Eury Perez of the Gulf Coast League Nationals. The Gulf Coast League is Rookie level baseball that is based in Florida. The Clubs that have Gulf Coast League teams are the Astros, Cardinals, Mets, Nationals, Blue Jays, Braves, Pirates, Phillies, Tigers, Yankees, Oriloes, Rays Red Sox and Twins. I covered some of the games for MiLB this season and was able get photos of players from the Marlins, Blue Jays, Braves, Astros, Yankees and Nationals.

The Gulf Coast League games are normally played on the back fields at the training facilities and you will hardly see any fans attending the games. Occasionally the teams will play on the Spring Training fields but to date I have not been to any of those games. You can see the rest of the top 20 from the Gulf Coast League here.
