TrackMan & Blast Leaderboard: TPA Scout Day
July 1, 2020
Thursday June 18th saw PBR Scouts converge at Ting Park in Holly Springs, NC to host a Scout Day with The Performance Academy (TPA). TPA's Scout Day featured close to fifty players from their organization. Players covered classes from the 2021 - 2023 graduating years.
During the Scout Day, pitchers threw a controlled bullpen with information gathered on TrackMan and a Stalker Pro SII radar gun. Position players were able to run a laser timed 60, on the artificial surface at Ting Stadium, followed by a defensive and offensive workout. During the live BP portion, hitters used Blast Motion sensors to measure pre-contact analytics and TrackMan measured ball flight off the bat.
During BP, hitters were equipped with a Blast Motion sensor, measuring the swing analytics up to contact. TrackMan was running throughout BP to measure ball flight characteristics. Below are some of the leaders of several advanced analytic categories.
