July 3, 2013 – The Victoria Generals have already clinched a second-place finish in the first-half Texas Collegiate League standings which means that they have also secured the number two seed in the TCL playoffs come August. The Generals will host a home playoff game on August 10 at Riverside Stadium in Victoria against the number three seed.

The Brazos Valley Bombers (24-5) are the TCL first-half champions and will have the number one overall seed in the 2013 post season.

The first-half of the season comes to a close tonight for the Generals (17-12) as they take on the East Texas Pump Jacks at Driller Park in Kilgore at 7:05pm.

The Generals have added right-handed pitcher Zack Vasek from Kansas State University to the roster for the second-half of the season. Vasek, a native of Rosenberg, will join the Generals on Thursday night as they kick-off the second-half with a home game at Riverside Stadium against the Acadiana Cane Cutters at 6:00pm.

Vasek redshirted at KSU and is currently trying to decide where he will transfer to in the fall. As a senior at Lamar Consolidated High School, Vasek was named the 2012 district MVP as well as the Houston Area 4-A Pitcher of the Year after going 9-2 with a 1.45 ERA and one save. Vasek accumulated 102 strikeouts in 72.1 innings of work as a senior. He was also named the Fort Bend Herald All-Area MVP in 2012 and was a Houston Area Baseball Coaches Association All-Star Game selection.
