Unsigned Senior Games

Byrum is 5-9 with an athletic frame that has some projection left to it. He is a switch hitter, from the right side hits from an open athletic stance, leg kick stride on line, smooth load back to a wrap. Hips rotate completely with some violence and he maintains good lower half balance. Keeps hands inside, short and quick to the ball with some strength at contact. Slightly uphill swing path, showed pull approach with plenty of natural loft in his swing.
