Bombers Tryout (November 18, 2017)
DeSanto is a 5-foot-4 115 pound SS/RHP. He ran a 9.46 60. Offensively - Right handed hitter with an squared off, even stance with high leg kick. Hands held high and aggressive approach which produced line drives; exit velo 67 MPH off a tee. Results played up; solid foundation to build off of. Defensively - Aggressive action to the ball, infield velocity 66 MPH. Quick feet and hands work through the ball, shorter arm action will result in quicker release. Good bounce in his step, will stay in the middle of the field as he progresses. Pitching - Sets up on the 1st base side of the mound; chest high leg drive, lands closed working through front side. Works through ¾ arm slot, showed some consistency in the zone with all pitches. FB sat 63-66 MPH with late action CB 50-51 MPH. Was able to stay down in the zone with CH.
