Area youth ballplayers gathered in Randolph Saturday afternoon for a Major League Baseball-sponsored pitching, hitting, and running competition. Winners from five age groups will test their skills in Newport, Vt. next week; the top competitors at that event will win the opportunity to field balls at the MLB Home Run Derby in July. Fleet of foot, Aakash Patrick sprints from the outfield to home plate in 10.01 seconds. (Herald / Tim Calabro)
