The San Francisco Giants have signed their top pick in the 2007 First-Year Player Draft in left-handed pitcher Madison Bumgarner (10th selection overall).
Bumgarner, a 6-4, 215-pound left hander, helped Hudson's South Caldwell High School to the North Carolina state championship in 2007. Gatorade's North Carolina Player of the Year posted an 11-2 record with a save and a 1.05 ERA (13er, 86.1ip) this year. A member of the two-time state champions, the southpaw struck out 143 batters, while issuing just 11 walks over 86.1 innings.
