OK Fall Upperclass Games: Pitcher's Data Dive
November 2, 2022
Prep Baseball Report Oklahoma hosted the Fall Upperclass Games on October 30th at the University of Central Oklahoma. The event featured players from all over the state coming from the 2023, 2024, and 2025 classes. The event featured Swift laser timed 60's, BP with Trackman and Blast Motion, positional radar gun readings and pop times, and a game featuring live action. Today we take a deeper dive into the analytics on the pitchers from the event with data collected by Trackman. We are able to take a closer look into what makes each pitch effective that might not be able to be seen by the naked eye. We jump into the top velocities, spin rates, horizontal breaks, and induced vertical breaks on the top fastballs, curveballs, and sliders from the event.
