If you haven’t heard the story on Xavier Taylor, then look it up. He is a 12-year-old boy who is fighting for his life after being hit by a baseball during warm-ups for his game. He got hurt and was put on life support while he was out there having fun and doing the one thing we all love... Playing baseball. This past Saturday, the Indiana Mayhem 14U wore special shirts dedicated to Xavier and signed an extra shirt to ship to his family. Prayers out to you, Xavier, and his family. Everyone from the Mayhem family is praying for a speedy and full recovery. God bless you, kid. Thank you to Custom Creations By Cheryl for being able to get these shirts done quickly on such short notice.

Indiana Mayhem are BACK-TO-BACK Rick Vaughn Champions!
After an incredible championship game, the boys never gave up. Down 15-9 heading into the bottom of the 4th, Kaden Marcus ( #33) delivered a massive bases-clearing walk-off double to lead the Indiana Mayhem to a thrilling 16-15 comeback victory!
The entire coaching staff, all the parents, and everyone in the Mayhem organization couldn’t be prouder of these boys for never giving up and showing what Mayhem baseball is all about!
