OF Alex Birt (Glenbrook North, 2023; IL) was another name who impressed during the BP portion of the event. Listed at 5-foot-10, 180-pounds, Birt swung a simple right-handed bat and creates some easy hand (22.8 mph avg.) and bat speed (79.2 mph avg.), too. During his round, Birt’s hardest hit ball of the day came off the bat at 97.3 mph, which was good for second best of the event, and he also averaged 87.4 mph throughout. Also, his 6.97 speed was apparent during his round of outfield defense as he was a quick mover from side-to-side and paired it with an arm that topped at 84 mph, too.
