Through the chaos and showmanship that defines Banana Ball, five Firefighter players have separated themselves from the flames and ignited this squad into a must-watch force.

Leading the charge at the plate is slugger Dalton Cornett, who’s been a steady powerhouse with a .323 average and three home runs on the season. Whether it’s roping line drives or launching moonshots into the stands, Cornett has become the team’s offensive backbone and a fan favorite.

On the mound, Austin Temple has been dealing smoke. The right-hander has racked up 11 strikeouts and routinely shuts down rallies before they even start. Temple’s precision and pace fit the Banana Ball tempo like a glove, and hitters haven’t been able to keep up.

Joining him in the strikeout parade is Ben Dum, who matched Temple’s K total with 11 of his own. Dum’s 1:14 minutes-per-inning average makes him one of the most efficient arms in the league—a perfect fit for Banana Ball’s lightning-fast format.

Bradford Webb, another ace in the Firefighters’ arsenal, has also fanned 11 batters this season. With pinpoint control and a knack for getting big outs, Webb has become a trusted arm in tight spots. His consistency and poise under pressure have made him a quiet but crucial contributor.

But it’s not just the pitching and power turning heads. Logan Lacy is redefining defense with 18 trick plays and counting. From no-look catches to behind-the-back flips, Lacy’s glove wizardry embodies the showtime spirit of Banana Ball. If there’s a play to be made, especially one that breaks the laws of baseball physics Lacy’s usually the one pulling it off.

As the Firefighters continue to light up the league, these five standouts are giving fans a show worth watching and opponents plenty to worry about. Whether it’s power, pitching, or pure flash, this squad has it all and they’re not cooling off anytime soon.
