Sammy Esposito
PBR SC Director of Scouting

On Saturday December 7th Prep Baseball of South Carolina was on hand at Florence Legion Stadium in Florence, SC for the Pee Dee Regional Scout Day. The event featured players from the 2025-2029 grad classes.

The day started with players running a laser timed 60 measuring the players 10/30/60 yard splits, then BP on the field with Trackman collecting ball flight data. Followed by pitchers throwing a controlled bullpen with Trackman collecting data analytics. And to finish the day all catchers, infielders, and outfielders went through defensive evaluations.

Below we begin our breakdown of the players in attendance.

Statistical Leaders

Trackman Leaders - Hitting

PEAK EXIT VELOCITY

TrackMan is able to track every ball hit into fair territory, throughout the BP sessions.  Below are the exit velocities produced by individual players.

AVERAGE EXIT VELOCITY

The average exit velocity measures a players ability to consistently produce hard contact.  The average was taken based on every ball tracked by TrackMan throughout the player's BP session.

DISTANCE OFF THE BAT

TrackMan is able to measure and track the ball while in the air.  For every fair ball put in play it will display the distance the hit traveled.

Peak Distance - Best of the Hitter’s Session

 

Average Distance - Average of each ball tracked in the Session

 

LAUNCH ANGLE PERCENTAGE

Based on the ball flight, TrackMan is able to identify each hit as a ground ball, line drive, or fly ball.  While there are many factors as to why a hitter may approach each pitch in a certain way, the overall groupings of BP can give some insight to each hitter's approach.
