Chatsworth sluggers on Team USA

Chatsworth High senior infielders Mike Moustakas and Matt Dominguez have made the final cut for the USA Baseball Junior National Team. The 18-player roster was announced Thursday night after a doubleheader that concluded a week of team trials in Georgia.
Moustakas, who holds Chatsworth's single-season home run record and shares the Chancellors' career home run record with Dominguez, hit three home runs in seven games during the trials. In a change of pace from his time with Chatsworth, where he stars as a shortstop, Moustakas has been playing a lot of first base and was also used as a catcher and pitcher. Dominguez has remained in his familiar spot at third base.
The team is scheduled to practice today then leave Saturday for Cuba, where it will participate in the International Baseball Federation's AAA World Championships beginning Sunday.
