TOP PITCHING PERFORMANCES

- RHP Nick Bitsko (Central Bucks East), No. 1 in the PA Class of 2021, sat 90-94 our of a high 3/4 arm slot during two innings of work. The 6-foot-3, 220-pounder also flashed an 11/5 curveball at 78-80 with depth and a quality changeup at 82-84.

- Uncommitted 2020 RHP Steven Graver (Notre Dame, NJ) sat 83-86 from a 3/4 arm slot while mixing in a slider at 69-73. This was our second look at Graver this summer and the 6-foot-6, 185-pound senior has a chance to throw meaningful innings early in his college career.

- Uncommitted 2020 RHP Tyler Babel (Pennsbury) is getting better every time we have an opportunity to see him. At this event the 6-foot-1, 170-pound righty sat 85-86 from a high 3/4 arm slot, striking out four in four scoreless innings of work while yielding just two hits. Babel also commanded a curveball with 11/5 rotation at 70-72 and a changeup at near fastball arm speed that sat 68-71.

- 2020 LHP Devin Sweeney (Pennsbury) sat 82-84 from an easy 3/4 arm slot over five scoreless innings of work. The Delaware commit struck out seven, including the final three batters he faced, while allowing just three hits. Sweeney also showed advanced feel for a curveball with 1/7 rotation at 66-68.

TOP HITTING PERFORMANCES

- 2020 OF Dalton Turner (Neshaminy), a Rider commit, went 4-for-9 with a walk, two runs scored and two RBI over the course of three games. The 6-foot, 185-pound right-handed hitter showcased his power potential with all four hits going for extra bases (2 doubles, 2 triples).

- Uncommitted 2020 3B Julian Murray (Central Bucks West) went 3-for-7 with a double, a sacrifice fly and a walk in nine plate appearances over three games. The 5-foot-11, 185-pound right-handed hitter scored a pair of runs and drove in four.
