SoCal Underclass Games: TrackMan Hitting Leaderboards

October 3, 2023

PBR California's Underclass Games took place over the weekend with separate events in both Northern and Southern California. We got to see familiar faces and some new ones show out at both events. The Underclass Games is an event designed to identify projectable players in the classes of 2026 and 2027 before they start their spring seasons.

Players gathered at Hart Park in Orange, California for a workout and a simulated game. They were evaluated by our staff and PBR's partnered technologies. Today we look at the hitting data from TrackMan.

Prep Baseball Report events across the country have been powered by TrackMan’s industry-leading Portable system to capture pinpoint accurate, actionable data from player performances. Prep Baseball Report and Trackman are dedicated to recognizing talent and unleashing their potential.

All hitters had a chance to be evaluated through our portable Trackman unit. Each player received a round of on the field BP where they were measured in key ball flight metrics such as exit velocity, distance, launch angles, spray charts and much more.  

Exit Velocity

The velocity of the ball as soon as it releases from contact with the bat. This metric coupled with launch angle are the two most important implications for distance.

Average Exit Velocity

The average exit velocity throughout a batter's BP. This metric is used to show how consistent a player is making high EV contact

Peak Distance

This metric measures the farthest ball a player hit calculated by multiple other metrics.
