RHP Brock Hill (2021, South Alabama) looked like a completely different pitcher on Thursday night in his start in an area game. Hill has gotten off to an excellent start to his senior season and continued to put up impressive numbers last night. Opened up pounding the zone at 86-88 mph (2100 rpm) and even reached 89 mph once in the 3rd before settling in and pitching at 85-87 mph. Showed three different off speed offerings, but the breaking ball was the equalizer at 71-72 mph (2400 rpm) with hard, late action & 11/5 break. Showed confidence in it and the ability to throw for strikes in early counts and bury it in the dirt for swing and miss with two strikes. Also featured a 76-77 (2300 rpm) slider that was firmer with tight spin a few times, and flashed an occasional changeup, mostly to left-handed hitters, at 79-80 mph. Finished earning the win while tossing 6 IP, H, R (0 ER), BB & 12K’s on the night.
