RHP/C Shane Emrich is a 6-foot-2, 185-pound uncommitted senior from Spring-Ford HS. He showcased 2.15-2.19 pop times on throws of 72 mph out of the crouch at the Preseason All-State Showcase last February. The two-way prospect had a solid round of batting practice in which he consistently barreled the baseball. Emrich uses a very wide base and a toe-tap trigger to generate barrel whip in his swing. He showed an 84 mph bat exit velocity and the ability to use all fields. Emrich sat 77-79 with some arm-side run out of a high 3/4 arm slot during his bullpen session. The  junior showed a 69 mph curveball with a 10/4 break and a 64 mph changeup that had significant run and downward movement.

Emrich will showcase his abilities at the Unsigned Senior Showcase on October 19 at B2B Baseball in Manheim, Pennsylvania. The event will provide talented uncommitted seniors from Pennsylvania and West Virginia the opportunity to perform for college coaches prior to the early signing period in November.
