Cypress, Calif.- This past weekend Prep Baseball California continued the fall slate of events with a trip to Orange County for the OC Uncommitted Game. With athletes from the '25-'26 class coming together to participate in a showcase workout and then live game action on the campus of Cypress College in Orange County.
The day got started with a Pro-Style showcase workout for all position players/two-way players in attendance. Players received athletic testing on the Swift platforms including 10-30-60 yard sprint times and RSI/Vertical Jump testing. Blast Motion sensors were in use for all batting practice swings to collect swing metric data while Trackman technologies provided the Prep Baseball California staff with batted ball data on each player throughout the batting practice portion. As well, players worked out at their positions during the defensive portion of the workout to collect arm strength velocities while evaluating actions of each player defensively. At the conclusion of the workout the 15 pitchers in attendance stepped on the mound to face 5 hitters each in simulated live game play which gave our staff a look at the in game hitting, defense, pitching and base-running abilities of the players in performance.
Today, we will be taking a look at the swing metrics leaders from Blast Motion during the batting practice portion of the OC Uncommitted Game event.
