Comments
2.23.13 Birnberg is a lanky 5-foot-10, 160-pound SS/MIF from West Bloomfield HS. Birnberg is solid all around. Ran a 7.15 on this day. Arm strength registered 74 mph across the diamond. Moved well. Played through the ball quickly and cleanly. Shortened his throws by charging. Accurate. Projects as a second baseman at the next level right now. Hands are soft. Has an upright narrow stance and starts from high hand positioning. Shows line drive stroke and ability to spray the ball to all fields. Due to narrow stance he takes a longer stride and his head moved with it.
