Power / Speed Score
A simple calculation that divides the athlete’s Exit Velocity Max by the athlete’s 60 Yard Dash time for the given event year. For example, 98 MPH / 7.00s = 14.00.
Upperclass Games (September 23rd, 2018) Sparber has an athletic build at 6-foot 185-pounds. Ran the 60 yard dash in 7.58-seconds, which was one of the highest times for a catcher at the event. Exit velocity topped at 91 MPH, which was one of the highest recording from the event as well. At the plate, Sparber starts in a wide, athletic stance with hands above back shoulder and weight on back side. Uses a small leg lift and stride to start swing. Hand load is minimal. Creates extension in hands and wrists throughout the zone to produce line drive pop. Slight uphill finish with balance throughout. Behind the dish, Sparber stood out as one of, if not the best defense catcher from the event. Pop times sat consistently 1.95-2.00 and recorded 80 MPH on throws down to 2B. Compact and explosive out of the shoot, Sparber's throws had life to them. Certainly one of, if not the top uncommitted catcher in the 2020 class.
