California high school baseball RBI leaders: Stanford-bound catcher tops list

As if Malcolm Moore needs to supply any more evidence. The highly-touted 6-foot-2, 210-pound catcher from McClatchy (Sacramento) leads California in RBI with 47 in 25 games.

Projected as the No. 44 pick in July's MLB Draft — he's ranked even higher on other sites — Moore is hitting .556 (47 of 72) with 12 doubles, 13 home runs and 26 walks. He's put up big numbers despite not seeing many good pitches.

Moore is one of 11 Californians with at least 40 RBI, including No. 2 Andrew Sherrell, a senior infielder and pitcher from Taft, with 46.

If Moore decides not to sign professionally, he's got a scholarship to Stanford lined up.
