For the first time, the Kentucky High School Baseball Coaches Association partnered with PBR Kentucky to run the East/West Showcase and All-Star games. The event, which included sophomores and juniors selected by coaches from each region to participate, took place on the campus of Centre College on June 15. Players participated in a showcase style workout before the East and West teams took the field against each other in front of the PBR Kentucky staff, several high school coaches, and many college coaches that were in attendance.
Here is a look at the leaders in several different statistical categories.
