This week marks the start of the 2018 Area Code Games. Each summer, Eight regional teams play in a five-day showcase in California. The rosters will feature the best baseball players from around the nation competing at the highest level, while being evaluated at the highest level. Scouts from all 30 Major League teams and the Major League Scouting Bureau will be in attendance. This tournament serves as the beginning of a nine month interview process culminating with the Major League Baseball Draft the following June.

This year, Top Tier's own, Jalen Greer has been chosen to play for the Chicago White Sox team at this year's event. Games begin today and run all the way through August 10th. All games are played at Blair Field, home of the Long Beach State Dirtbags.
