Congratulations to Brett Anderson on being named yesterday to the US Olympic Baseball team.  Anderson was the ace of the 2004 16U National Team that finished second in the Pan Am Championships that summer in Mexico.  He went 2-0 for Team USA that summer and struck out 24 opponents in 12 innings pitched.  Currently, Brett’s pitches at AA Midland for the Oakland A’s organization.  Best of luck to the entire team in Beijing, but particularly to Brett, the first 16U alum on our country’s Olympic team.
