Handful of MALB players participating in tryout

Tanner Leenknecht of the Billings Royals and Gage Hinsz of the Billings Scarlets are among five Montana American Legion Baseball players participating in the Area Code Tryouts today in Eugene, Oregon.

Slade Heggen (Missoula Mavericks AA), Brac Warren (Miles City Outlaws) and Jayse McLean (Great Falls Chargers) are the other players from Montana vying for a spot on the Pacific Northwest squad.

If selected for the team, which is represented by the Kansas City Royals, players will report to Long Beach, Calif. on August 5-10 where they will compete against seven other teams.

Players not selected initially may be subject to selection by other regions if roster space allows. Rosters for each team may range from 22 to 30 players. 

The New Balance Area Code Games will be televised live on ESPN3 on August 6.
