Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
6'0" 185 lbs. athletic frame with a strong lower-half. The former Jr. Future Gamer has been playing exceptionally well for the Eagles so far this season and that continued last Saturday against Catholic BR. Hitting out of the two-hole in this look, Jones drew a six-pitch walk in his first at-bat, before leading the bottom of the 3rd off with a ground-rule double to left-centerfield, which started a two run inning for Live Oak, after being down 5-2. Jones then worked a 2-0 count in his third at-bat and hit a line drive opposite-field single, and would come around to score on Brayden Allen's grand slam. He would finish the game 2-3 with 2 R and a BB. Jones also showed off his defensive tools and speed on a diving catch in the left-centerfield gap to rob Harrison Kidder of an extra-basehit. He's a talented player with tools to dream on, which is why he's a name that should be highlighted by college recruiters now that we are in the month of March.
