Benjamin gave up only one hit over three innings of work to secure the save in the season opener for Marin Catholic, mixing in 5 strikeouts across the outing. Benjamin mixed his spots well with his fastball to both righties and lefties, getting called strikes at the bottom of the zone and generating whiffs at the top. Benjamin showcased a couple of nice breaking balls with his slider, sitting 73-75, being thrown in the zone for called strikes and a curveball used late in the count. Benjamin punctuated the outing by striking out the side to end the game. Generating a lot of weak contact and a good number of called strikes and whiffs, Benjamin is one to keep an eye on for Marin Catholic.

Cooper is the #11 ranked LHP in the 27' Class in the state. Benjamin is a very interesting pitcher, I think hes got a shot to be pretty good. Cooper flashes a 4 pitch mix, has feel for all of them. The FB sits between 81.7-83.4 MPH and he topped out at 84.1 MPH. I really like the CB, 2200-2300 RPM sitting 69.2-71.3 MPH. SL 72.6-75.4 MPH with max spin of 2329 RPM. With these two pitches along with the FB, he can have a dangerous arsenal. The CH does need some work but it has potential to develop into that 4th pitch for him. the max velo was at 75.8 MPH with a max spin rate of 1583. Cooper knows how to pitch, the velocity will come over time and if he sticks to painting the corners and staying ahead he will be in for a solid year.
