On Saturday, February 25th, the PBR Missouri staff traveled to the EDGE Baseball Facility in Lee's Summit, MO, to host the US Nationals / Inside Edge / Marucci Midwest / Warriors / Sandlot Scout Day. This event featured 150+ players from all three travel programs, representing the 2024-to-2026 grad classes. Attendees participated in a pro-style workout in front of our staff, collecting verified data in the process and unrivaled metrics 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.
