Hustle Baseball & Softball

💕May be a day late, but we were all soaking in the day with the kids that made us Mamas! 💕

To all the incredible Mamas of Hustle Baseball — thank you. 💙

Your love, support, and passion for the game never go unnoticed. From the long drives to tournaments, to weeknight practices, late dinners, and those never-ending dirty uniforms… you show up every single time, and it means everything.

Y’all are the real MVPs — the backbone of this team, the loudest cheerleaders, and the steady support behind every player on that field.

Even though the Mother’s Day tournament didn’t go the way we hoped, not once did you stop cheering, believing, and lifting these boys up until the very last out. That kind of unwavering support is what truly defines this team.

We see you. We appreciate you. And we’re so grateful for everything you do.

Happy Mother’s Day to our Hustle Baseball moms — absolute rockstars! ⚾️

🔥 BIG NEWS 🔥

Hustle 12U is officially LEVELING UP! 💪⚾

After putting in the work, grinding through every inning, and showing what true dedication looks like, this squad has been bumped from AA to AAA — and they’ve EARNED every single bit of it. No shortcuts. No handouts. Just hustle, heart, and relentless effort.

This is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. Proud is an understatement. The journey doesn’t stop here… it just got bigger.

Let’s go, Hustle 12U — keep proving why you belong! 🚀🔥

This past weekend, Hustle 12U showed up ready to compete at the PG Battle in the Bay tournament—and they delivered in a big way!

Saturday was all business, with two strong wins that locked in the #1 seed. Come Sunday, the boys were battle-tested and determined, fighting their way all the way to the championship game—where they came out on top with a huge 11–6 win over Bayside Underground! 🏆

Every player brought heart and grit, but a few standout performances deserve the spotlight:

🔥 Gabe Mendoza – MVP Pitcher
Just two hits shy of a no-hitter! Added power at the plate with 2 doubles and an explosive triple.

⚡ Castiel Cano – Tournament MVP
Inside-the-park home run on those massive Big League Dreams fields! Dominant on the mound with zero runs allowed and only two hits given up. And on the bases? Too many steals to count—this kid is FAST.

💪 Reece Uñate – Trophy Winner
Absolute force in the championship game. Whether at the plate or on the mound, he made his presence known.

🧤 Brigg Bogie – Banner Winner
Play of the game! A clutch diving catch in left field to seal the final out and secure the championship win. Storybook moment.

This team showed up, showed out, and proved what they’re made of. Proud is an understatement! 💯

This past weekend’s tournament may not have gone the way we wanted, but there’s ALWAYS something to celebrate 💪⚾

Huge shoutout to TWO of our players for absolutely crushing it at the plate and sending balls OVER THE FENCE 🚀🔥 Nothing like that sound off the bat!

CASTIEL & RJ congratulations on your BOMB 💣 SHOTS!! Yall make it look easy! 🙌🏼

Moments like these remind us what we’re capable of and why we keep grinding every single day. We’re proud, we’re hungry, and we’re only gonna keep coming!

Let’s keep building. 💯

💚Playing with Purpose💚

March is Kidney Disease Awareness Month, and this one hits especially close to home.

We honor Pop Pop Ed-(Eduardo G. Peña), and Great Grandpa Ed-(Eduardo L. Peña) — two strong, loving men, two of our Hustle boys lost to kidney failure. Their strength, love, and legacy continue to live on.

This weekend, the Hustle boys take the field in their honor. Every play, every hustle, every moment is for them. We carry their names, their spirit, and their memory with us.

Gone, but never forgotten. 💚

🔥 HUGE WEEKEND FOR HUSTLE 🔥
