Burke, right hander out of Lake Forest HS, threw a gem on Saturday going five innings allowing only one hit and two runs along with seven strikeouts. The Right handler worked a two pitch mix, including a fastball that sat 74-77 mph and mixed in his 12/6 curveball around 63-66 mph. Burke has an over the top arm slot which helped his curveball mix in with his fastball. He kept hitters off-balance throughout the game and was able to throw either pitch in any count for a strike. The fastball has arm side run and jammed many hitters on the hands throughout his start. Burke had a clean and effortless motion, and there is still room to add strength and muscle throughout the body.
