Prep Baseball Report Oklahoma hosted the PBR OK Summer Open I.D. on At Deer Creek High School on Tuesday, July 11th. This event hosted nearly 25 players between 2021-2018 graduates for a pro showcase. The PBR staff was on hand to scout and evaluate. College recruiters will have a list of new names for their ScoutPlus subscription, as many talented played players showed their skills.

All of the video, stats, and pictures from the event have been posted on each individual player's profiles. Over the next few days, we will be looking at the pitchers and position players with in-depth scouting reports. Though many of the athletes today are two-way players, they will be cover here only as pitchers. Each player's full profile can be viewed by clicking on their picture. All exit velos taken from a tee.
