RHP/OF Blake Brown (Homeschool, 2027) showed out as one of the top two-way players in attendance. Currently the No. 49 ranked player in Michigan, Brown ran his fastball up to 89 mph with over 2,500 rpm, setting up a sharp downer curveball and sweeping slider, both with over 2,500 rpm as well. At the plate, the right-handed hitter worked on the barrel and on the top of the baseball with a longer, flat path - reaching up to 97 mph for his peak EV. He’s an impressive athlete with a 6.89 in the 60, and he moves well in the outfield to pair with his strong arm (T91 mph OF).
