Cross Hit Scout Day Stats
November 21, 2017
The 2017 Cross Hit Scout Day took place on Saturday, November 18th at Cross Hit Sports Academy in Gallatin. This event included a position player workout, followed by pitchers throwing a live 15-20 pitch pen. Players were afforded the opportunity to showcase their abilities in front of the PBR Tennessee staff and college coaches in attendance. The following is a look at the top statistical performances from the event.
A quick note on pitcher velocities, these were done at the end of a long workout and consisted of no hitters in box. Some of these pitchers showed us better velocity in game. We will make note of that on their individual write-ups.
