On Saturday June 4th PBR of North Carolina was on hand at Charlotte Latin for a scout day with the Queen City Corndogs and the Charlotte Megastars. The scout day featured players from the 2023-2025 grad classes.
The day began with players running a laser timed 60 recorded by Swift Technology. Position players then went through a defensive workout starting with catchers followed by the outfielders and infielders. After defense, players took BP on the field with Trackman collection ball flight data. The two teams met again on Sunday playing controlled games against each other. During the games Trackman gathered information on the pitchers.
Below we begin our breakdown of the players in attendance looking at the top performers in different categories. Look for more statistics and information to follow in the coming days.
