Byrdak, a 5-foot-11, 140-pound, wiry, right-handed pitcher delivered one of more dominant outings on the weekend in the 17U Championship game for the Cangelosi Sparks. Byrdak has a clean, repeatable delivery and advanced feel for what he is doing on the mound. Seemed to be toying with hitters at times, given his pitch sequencing. Four-pitch mix; can throw any of them in any count, makes his low-80’s fastball play up. Lived on the corners and at the knees throughout his outing. Understands how to land a breaking ball in the zone early in the count and expand with two strikes. High-pitchability 2022 right-handed pitcher with more velocity in the tank. 

Final Line: 5 IP, 5 H, 1 R, BB, 6 K
