By: Diego Solares
Area Scout, Illinois & Missouri

On Saturday, February 11th, the PBR Missouri staff traveled to the SportsBarn in Wentzville, MO, to host the GBA Scout Day. More than 110 prospects representing the 2023-to-2026 classes from the GBA travel program participated in a pro-style workout in front of our staff, collecting measurables and unrivaled data with the help of our tech partners.

Shortly after the event, our staff compiled the day’s statistical standouts into leaderboard format, and we put them all in one spot within our ‘Stat Story’, which can be found HERE. We then highlighted several standouts from the day within our 'Quick Hits', detailing over 30 players at a more in-depth level. You can find that piece HERE.

Today, we've put together some batted ball leaderboards from this event with the help of our partners at TrackMan. Below you'll see which players impacted the baseball at the firmest mark on Saturday, including both exit velocities and batted distance.
