On Sunday May 25th, Prep Baseball Washington hosted the Pacific Northwest Summer ID at Ridgefield Outdoor Recreation Complex. Prep Baseball scouts evaluated high school athletes in the 2027-2030 graduating classes, with several strong showings throughout the event.

Summer ID events serve as an important tool for both Prep Baseball scouts and college recruiters, who will subsequently create lists of prospects to follow as they plan their remaining summer coverage. We often tend to see prospects' best showings at Summer ID events, as players are fresh off playing for their respective high schools and are in the routine that consistently playing in-game offers. Standout performances can lend invites to some of the summer's top events, including the 2026 Pacific Northwest State Games.

Earlier, we released our Quick Hits, detailing scouting notes on standout players from the event, our Statistical Analysis, showcasing leaders in major stat categories, and our Positional Data Dive, focusing specifically on leaders in position player data. Today, we conclude our post-event articles for this event with our Pitching Data Dive, looking at leaders in metrics on the mound. For all other post-event content, click here.
