FULLERTON, CALIF. - The 2023 SoCal Uncommitted Games took place on Sunday October 8 at Fullerton College. This event included a full pro-style workout with two games taking place in the afternoon. We got to see plenty of action in the game portion as well as impressive numbers during the workout. To stay up to date on all the highlights, check the official PBR California twitter account.

Prep Baseball Report events across the country have been powered by TrackMan’s industry-leading Portable system and Blast Sensor technology to capture pinpoint accurate, actionable data from player performances. Prep Baseball Report, TrackMan and Blast are dedicated to recognizing talent and unleashing their potential.
Data collected by TrackMan has become significantly important for high school, Juco and 4-year players. College programs have evolved beyond radar velocity readings, looking deeper into a pitcher's ability to spin and move the ball. In addition to velocity, TrackMan provides pitchers with valuable data points such as spin rate, spin direction, horizontal movement, vertical movement and more. Ultimately providing feedback to college coaches, MLB scouts and the players themselves; to enhance training and also to identify prospects of interest above and beyond simple velocity readings.
At PBR California showcases and events, amateur players now have access to the same technology shared by professionals and are able to see how their pitching arsenal compares with those across the state and the country. The TrackMan Arsenal Analysis will highlight those metrics and explain the benefits behind the numbers.

Max Fastball Velocity
The maximum velocity of the pitch measured right at release.
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Velocity (max) |
1 | Aiden Pinn | CA | Mira costa | 2025 | RHP | 87.2 mph |
2 | Jacob Imoto | CA | Mission Hills | 2024 | LHP | 87.2 mph |
3 | Marcus McQueen | CA | Cajon | 2025 | RHP | 86.3 mph |
4 | Alex Stern | CA | Loyola | 2025 | RHP | 86.1 mph |
5 | Andrew Padova | CA | JSerra | 2024 | RHP | 85.9 mph |
6 | Ryan Fee | CA | Chaminade | 2025 | RHP | 84.5 mph |
7 | Adrian Nunez | CA | JSerra Catholic | 2024 | RHP | 84.5 mph |
8 | Rowan Haynes | CA | Granite Hills | 2024 | LHP | 84.5 mph |
9 | Owen Peake | CA | Westview | 2024 | LHP | 83.9 mph |
10 | Ryan Popkins | CA | Saint Augustine | 2025 | RHP | 83.8 mph |
Max Fastball Spin Rate
The max amount of revolutions per minute (rpm) of a pitch. For fastballs, a higher rpm causes the ball to drop less due to gravity, this gives the illusion of a rising pitch.
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Spin Rate (max) |
1 | Levi Uslander | CA | Cathedral Catholic | 2025 | 3B | 2473 rpm |
2 | Ryan Popkins | CA | Saint Augustine | 2025 | RHP | 2405 rpm |
3 | Cristian Mares | CA | St. Augustine | 2025 | RHP | 2368 rpm |
4 | Aiden Pinn | CA | Mira costa | 2025 | RHP | 2339 rpm |
5 | Rowan Haynes | CA | Granite Hills | 2024 | LHP | 2337 rpm |
6 | Jackson Ranney | CA | Notre Dame Sherman Oaks | 2025 | OF | 2279 rpm |
7 | Owen Peake | CA | Westview | 2024 | LHP | 2274 rpm |
8 | Ryan Fee | CA | Chaminade | 2025 | RHP | 2258 rpm |
9 | Alex Stern | CA | Loyola | 2025 | RHP | 2240 rpm |
10 | Eddie Jennings | CA | Santa Monica | 2025 | RHP | 2235 rpm |
Max Curveball Velocity
Like many things in baseball, the faster the better. A fast off-speed pitch while maintaining traditional movement patterns makes the pitch harder to hit. The measured velocity for this metric is right as the pitch leaves the hand.
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Velocity (max) |
1 | Adrian Nunez | CA | JSerra Catholic | 2024 | RHP | 76.6 mph |
2 | Rowan Haynes | CA | Granite Hills | 2024 | LHP | 75.5 mph |
3 | Alex Stern | CA | Loyola | 2025 | RHP | 75.4 mph |
4 | Andrew Padova | CA | JSerra | 2024 | RHP | 75.3 mph |
5 | Aiden Pinn | CA | Mira costa | 2025 | RHP | 74.1 mph |
6 | Ashton Arroyo | CA | Huntington Beach | 2025 | RHP | 72.9 mph |
7 | Jacob Imoto | CA | Mission Hills | 2024 | LHP | 72.9 mph |
8 | Cristian Mares | CA | St. Augustine | 2025 | RHP | 72.3 mph |
9 | Aaron Sambath | CA | Villa Park | 2024 | SS | 71.9 mph |
10 | Marcus McQueen | CA | Cajon | 2025 | RHP | 71.3 mph |
Max Curveball Spin Rate
The spin rate for a curveball tends to be the highest among all the pitches in a pitcher's arsenal. A higher spin rate, measured in rpms, on a curveball generally means more downward movement when combined with the top spin of the pitch.
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Spin Rate (max) |
1 | Rowan Haynes | CA | Granite Hills | 2024 | LHP | 2647 rpm |
2 | Aiden Pinn | CA | Mira costa | 2025 | RHP | 2645 rpm |
3 | Jack Kelly | CA | Maranatha Christian San Diego | 2025 | RHP | 2550 rpm |
4 | Cristian Mares | CA | St. Augustine | 2025 | RHP | 2491 rpm |
5 | Aaron Sambath | CA | Villa Park | 2024 | SS | 2355 rpm |
6 | Adrian Nunez | CA | JSerra Catholic | 2024 | RHP | 2305 rpm |
7 | Marviel Underwood | CA | Point Loma | 2025 | SS | 2301 rpm |
8 | Alex Stern | CA | Loyola | 2025 | RHP | 2293 rpm |
9 | Levi Uslander | CA | Cathedral Catholic | 2025 | 3B | 2219 rpm |
10 | Andrew Padova | CA | JSerra | 2024 | RHP | 2212 rpm |
Max Slider Velocity
Sliders generally are faster than most other off-speed pitches with less overall movement. This metric measures the speed of the slider when it comes out of the hand.
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Velocity (max) |
1 | Owen Peake | CA | Westview | 2024 | LHP | 77.8 mph |
2 | Jackson Ranney | CA | Notre Dame Sherman Oaks | 2025 | OF | 75.6 mph |
3 | Andrew Padova | CA | JSerra | 2024 | RHP | 75.0 mph |
4 | Jacob Imoto | CA | Mission Hills | 2024 | LHP | 73.9 mph |
5 | John McEntee | CA | Thousand Oaks | 2024 | RHP | 73.7 mph |
6 | Ryan Popkins | CA | Saint Augustine | 2025 | RHP | 73.0 mph |
Max Slider Spin Rate
The higher the spin rate for a horizontal pitch like the slider means that it will have more movement from right to left for a right handed pitcher. This metric measures the maximum spin rate of a pitcher's slider in rpms.
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Spin Rate (max) |
1 | Jackson Ranney | CA | Notre Dame Sherman Oaks | 2025 | OF | 2453 rpm |
2 | Andrew Padova | CA | JSerra | 2024 | RHP | 2413 rpm |
3 | Owen Peake | CA | Westview | 2024 | LHP | 2178 rpm |
4 | Jacob Imoto | CA | Mission Hills | 2024 | LHP | 2151 rpm |
5 | John McEntee | CA | Thousand Oaks | 2024 | RHP | 2138 rpm |
6 | Ryan Popkins | CA | Saint Augustine | 2025 | RHP | 2028 rpm |
Max Changeup Velocity
This metric determines the speed of a changeup as it is released from the pitcher's hand.
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Velocity (max) |
1 | Aaron Sambath | CA | Villa Park | 2024 | SS | 81.6 mph |
2 | Andrew Padova | CA | JSerra | 2024 | RHP | 80.4 mph |
3 | Marcus McQueen | CA | Cajon | 2025 | RHP | 77.6 mph |
4 | Ryan Fee | CA | Chaminade | 2025 | RHP | 75.1 mph |
5 | Cristian Mares | CA | St. Augustine | 2025 | RHP | 74.7 mph |
6 | Tristen Valenzuela | CA | Oceanside | 2024 | 1B | 70.9 mph |
Max Changeup Spin Rate
This metric shows how fast the ball is spinning during the pitch, measured by rpms.
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Spin Rate (max) |
1 | Cristian Mares | CA | St. Augustine | 2025 | RHP | 2627 rpm |
2 | Aaron Sambath | CA | Villa Park | 2024 | SS | 2221 rpm |
3 | Marcus McQueen | CA | Cajon | 2025 | RHP | 2137 rpm |
