It’s less than a day before Christmas and we hear Santa and the elves still have a few hours of taking requests before loading the sleigh and heading out, so we asked several players who’ll be at the Select 30 this weekend the following question:
“What’s Your #1 Wish or Request for Christmas?”
Below are their responses.
Not surprisingly, several would like to see a new bat underneath the tree and others want new softball-related items, but what we didn’t anticipate is that Christmas came early for some (continue below and you’ll see what we mean)!

A pogo stick.
Isabella Melley (2B/OF, 2025), Florida Power Black, Ft. Lauderdale FL
Air pods.
Jada Phillips (C/SS, 2024), TN Mojo 2024, Lakewood Ranch FL
A new Easton bat.
Brynlee Slockett (MIF/3B), Eastern Iowa Barracudas, North Liberty IA
White Nike Air Force 1’s.
Kaleena Downing (3B/UT, 2022), Oklahoma Impact Gold Select, Nowata OK
I would love the new DeMarini bat for Christmas this year!
Kylee Molitor (MIF, 2025), Wisconsin Bandits, Reedsburg WI
My only request for Christmas was a new bat which I got early so that I can break it in before this camp. So far, I am liking my new Prism a lot but will need a little more time with it before I love it as much as my old DeMarini.
