Carolina Senior Games East: Quick Hitters - Pitchers
November 2, 2023
On Sunday October 15th PBR of South Carolina and North Carolina was on hand at Francis Marion University for our Carolina Senior Games East. The event featured players from the 2024 grad classes.
The day started with players running a laser timed 60 while using swift timing gates to measure their 10 yd/ 30 yd/ and 60 yd split, along with testing vertical jump on the jump mat. After the athletic testing, position players took BP on the field with Trackman collecting ball flight data, followed by catchers, outfielders and infielders going through a defensive evaluation.
After the workout, the players where split into to teams and played a controlled game. Pitchers threw to live hitters in a controlled environment, allowing PBR Scouts to control pitch count and stress of each inning. Hitters got live looks at pitchers, allowing the coaches and scouts in attendance to further their evaluations after BP, in the live setting.
Below we begin our breakdown of the players in attendance looking at the top performers in select categories.
