Upper Deck Expos 2036

Meet Maveric Etzkorn!

At 9 years old, Maveric is a dedicated ballplayer who has primarily played third base and center field. He loves to compete, works hard to improve every time he steps onto the field, and was honored to receive his recreational league's Silver Slugger Award. His dream is to one day earn a real Silver Slugger Award while playing in the MLB.

When he's not at the ballpark, Maveric enjoys playing video games, swimming, and spending time with his family.

A fan of the Savannah Bananas, Maveric knows baseball is about more than just winning—it's about having fun, too. While he takes the game seriously, his goofy personality is never far behind. Whether he's making a big play, cracking a joke, or keeping his teammates smiling, Maveric brings energy, positivity, and a love for the game every time he steps onto the field.

Welcome to the Expo family, we are so excited to have you!⚾️

Meet Jordan "Ace" Johnson!

At just 8 years old, Jordan is a versatile player who is always ready to help his team wherever he's needed. Whether he's in the middle infield, patrolling the outfield, or taking the mound, Ace brings hustle, determination, and a team-first attitude every time he steps onto the field.

When he's not playing baseball, you'll find him staying active with basketball, football, or hanging out with his friends. No matter the sport, Ace enjoys competing, learning, and having fun.

With a love for the game and a willingness to play wherever his team needs him, he continues to grow as a player and is always ready for the next challenge.

Meet Gage Peters!

A 9-year-old baseball player with a love for the game and a competitive spirit that never backs down. Growing up with two sisters and three brothers has taught him the value of hard work, determination, and always giving his best, both on and off the field.

When he's not playing baseball, you'll likely find him on the football field, on the wrestling mat, or outdoors hunting, fishing, and making memories with family and friends. No matter the sport or activity, Gage brings the same grit, hustle, and team-first attitude.

For Gage, baseball is more than just a game; it's an opportunity to challenge himself, build lasting friendships, and continue working toward becoming the best player and teammate he can be!

Meet Ryker York!

At just 8 years old, Ryker is already building a strong foundation as a baseball player. He has experience playing first base, third base, and every outfield position, while continuing to grow his skills behind the plate as a catcher and on the mound as a pitcher. His goal is to one day make first base his home while continuing to develop into a well-rounded player.

When he’s not at the ballfield, Ryker enjoys practicing baseball with his dad and playing “Backyard Baseball” on his PlayStation. He’s always eager to learn, put in the work, and find new ways to improve his game.

A huge Aaron Judge fan, Ryker has big dreams of making it to the MLB one day—and with his love for the game and dedication to getting better, he’s already taking steps toward that dream!

Welcome to the Expo family, we are so excited to have you!⚾️

Meet Sexton Robertson!
At 9 years old, Sexton has been playing baseball since he was just 4 and continues to grow his love for the game every season. He currently holds down right field while putting in the work to achieve his goal of becoming a pitcher. Sexton throws right-handed and bats left-handed—a combination that keeps things interesting!

His favorite team is the Savannah Bananas because they remind everyone that baseball is meant to be fun, and his favorite baseball movie is The Sandlot—a true classic.

When he's not on the field, you'll usually find Sexton at the lake, riding jet skis, or making memories with his family. Sexton brings a great attitude, a strong work ethic, and is always ready to have fun and be a great teammate.
