PBR Kansas Best of 2023: Max Infield Velocity


By: Diego Solares
Area Scout, Illinois & Missouri

With 2023 behind us, our staff has dedicated some time to reflect on the top statistical performers that we saw at our events last year. We'll be shining some light on Kansas natives who put up loud numbers in 2023, showcasing our staff their tools at PBR Kansas events.

These leaderboards were compiled solely based on numbers at our state events, including Preseason IDs, Scout Days, Top Prospect Games, Future Games, and the inaugural All-American Game, too.

To see all of the events we ran last year, click HERE.

We've already rolled out multiple end-of-the-year stories, which you can find here:

+ 60-Yard Dash
+ Max Fastball Velocity
+ Max Exit Velocity
+ Peak Batted Distance
+ Max Outfield Velocity

We'll turn to the field today, where we're taking a look at the firmest across the infield at our events last year.
