Prep Baseball Report

Future Games Leaderboard: Blast Motion Bat Speed


Brett Harrison
Nevada Scouting Director

EMERSON, GA. - One of the important tools Prep Baseball Report has implemented at its events is the use of Blast Motion sensors. During batting practice, the Blast Motion sensors measure Swing and Impact Metrics across several categories. Swing metrics measure pre-impact mechanics centered around plane, connection, and rotation while Impact metrics measure pre-impact performance outcomes based on ball contact. 

Not to be confused with exit velocity which measure the speed at which the balls leaves the bat, Bat Speed instead measures the speed of the barrel at impact. Essentially it tells you how fast the sweet get through the zone. In other words, the more bat speed a hitter has, the more damage he can do at the plate. 

Below are the top performers from Team Nevada in the Bat Speed category at the 2020 Prep Baseball Report Future Games as measured by Blast Motion sensors.

Below you will find the statistical breakdown of the top #TeamNevada Bat Speeds provided by Blast Motion.
