The Melbourne Bearkatz baseball team is having one of its best seasons with a record of 17-2. A huge part of their success is due to star player, Hayden Edwards. Edwards is the ace pitcher for the Bearkatz, and has not lost a start this year. Edwards has had success not only on the mound, but also at the plate as he bats in the leadoff spot.

Edwards says the key part to hit pitching success this year is due to his defense behind him.
