HarbourCats' MacNeil, Shupe, Davis and Franklin named to All-WCL teams

“Going 6-0 with a 1.08 ERA was more than enough to get Logan MacNeil the attention of voters for the West Coast League all-star team, as the Vancouver product who pitched at New Mexico JC in spring was named to the first team today.

The Majors didn’t walk it off. They ran it off.”
