Peter
Farren

Farren (Oak Park - River Forest, 2025) showed well at the plate the first day, going 2-for-4 with a HR, 2B, and two RBI’s to help the Sparks North White 17u to victory. The right handed hitter has a tall and balanced setup; pairing with a short leg kick and a short load with the hands. Also a right handed pitcher, he went two IP with four punchouts and only allowed one hit in his outing against Top Tier Navy 17u. The 5-11, 175-pound athletic frame has a clean delivery and delivers his arsenal from a high ¾ slot. The fastball was sitting 83-85 mph topping out at 86 mph. The curveball sits at 72-74 and has proper shape keeping hitters off balance.

Farren turned in a solid performance for the Huskies out of the ‘pen tossing five scoreless innings while only allowing two hits and walking three, while also punching out four batters. The sturdy 5-foot-11, 175-pound righty ran his fastball in the low 80’s (T82) and kept hitters off balance with a low 70’s breaking ball.
