Carolina Senior Games East: Statistical Leaders
October 18, 2023
On Sunday October 15th PBR of South Carolina and North Carolina was on hand at Francis Marion University for our Carolina Senior Games East. The event featured players from the 2024 grad classes.
The day started with players running a laser timed 60 while using swift timing gates to measure their 10 yd/ 30 yd/ and 60 yd split, along with testing vertical jump on the jump mat. After the athletic testing, position players took BP on the field with Trackman collecting ball flight data, followed by catchers, outfielders and infielders going through a defensive evaluation.
After the workout, the players where split into to teams and played a controlled game. Pitchers threw to live hitters in a controlled environment, allowing PBR Scouts to control pitch count and stress of each inning. Hitters got live looks at pitchers, allowing the coaches and scouts in attendance to further their evaluations after BP, in the live setting.
Below we begin our breakdown of the players in attendance looking at the top performers in select categories.

STATISTICAL LEADERS
THE 60 YARD DASH
TrackMan Max Exit Velocity (BP)
During BP, TrackMan tracked ball flight off the bat. One element TrackMan is able to produce is the exit velocity. Below are the top Exit Velocities produced during live BP.
Positional Velocity - Infielders
Infielders were able to workout at shortstop throwing across the infield, or from 1B throwing to 2B and 3B in the pro-style workout.
Positional Velocity - Outfielders
Outfielders worked out from right field and center field, making throws to third base. Throws were measured by a radar gun to gauge arm strength.
CATCHER POP TIMES & POSITIONAL VELOCITY
In the pro-style workout, catchers workout from behind home plate, making multiple throws to 2B, simulating a stolen base attempt.
TrackMan Info - Pitcher Bullpens
Pitchers threw a controlled scrimmage showcasing their full arsenal of pitches. Velocity and spin rate information was gathered off of the TrackMan. TrackMan analytics are the official analytics and the velocities below were captured by TrackMan.
