A SkillShow Story: MLB ALCS 2025 Game 7

November 3, 2025

Every so often, a story reminds me exactly why we started SkillShow.

Years ago, at a Perfect Game showcase, a dad came up to us.
He told us his son
wasn’t getting much attention from college recruiters.
A great athlete and a great person, just flying under the radar.
He asked if we could make a video to help his son get seen.

We said yes. From that event,
we made him a SkillShow recruiting video.
Then he asked, “Could you do one for my daughter too? She’s a softball player.”
So we did. Same afternoon on a side field that was across the street from the showcase.

Brother, sister, and dad all out there helping each other, chasing the same dream, together with my father and I as we ran our business trying to help families like them.

Fast forward a few years...
That “under-scouted” kid went on to become an
All-American at UConn, a first-round draft pick, and one of the most exciting players in Major League Baseball.

That kid was
George Springer, currently on the Toronto Blue Jays. (His sister was Nicole, a highly accomplished collegiate player, Puerto Rican National Team player and college coach!)

Stories like that remind me what this work is really about.
Helping athletes and families believe in themselves, get seen, and find opportunity.

At SkillShow, we’ve had the privilege of working with tens of thousands of incredible families like the Springers. And every time a player’s journey comes full circle, it reinforces one truth:

Talent deserves to be seen. And
we help Show their Skills!

High school baseball is where the future starts to take shape: the raw tools, the swagger, the flashes of greatness. Before they were All-Stars or MVPs, these guys were just teenagers lighting up local diamonds. At third base, we’re talking about cornerstones. Big arms. Bigger bats. Players who owned the hot corner and the batter’s box. And the three we chose? All future pros. All high school legends. Let’s break it down.

Every generation has its own definition of greatness. At second base, greatness shows up in different ways. Flash. Grit. Complete dominance.  For the All-Century Team, we narrowed the field to three players who define what the position has been since 2000. Each took a different path. Each brought a different style. And each forced the game to adjust around them. This is the All-Century Team at second base, SkillShow style.
Madison Bumgarner pitching in high school

In high school, pitchers don’t just lead rotations — they define eras. They throw gas, paint corners, and rack up strikeouts under Friday night lights. They’re the ones who silence bats and electrify scouts. And the three on our All-Century Team? They were already big-league material before they ever signed their first contract.  We’re talking about pure dominance, elite projection, and the kind of prep careers that built legends.
Mike Trout in high school

The best outfielders at the high school level selected by SkillShow for their All-Century Team: Corbin Carroll, Andrew McCutchen, Kyle Schwarber, and Mike Trout.
November 3, 2025
Not every great catcher was supposed to be a catcher. Some of the most legendary prep players of the century weren't traditional backstops at all — they were multi-sport stars, position-switchers, or even pitchers who just happened to strap on the gear and dominate. For the All-Century Team, we wanted to highlight not just the numbers, but the stories. And behind the plate, the stories are anything but ordinary.
