Balanced, even stance with the hands starting high above the shoulder showing some rhythm pre load. Utilized a controlled toe-tap stride in order to initiate the hands through a flat path.

Solid results in game action while repeatedly finding hard contact at the front of the plate against velocity. Defensively: The primary outfielder featured natural instincts in space with solid straight line footspeed and took quality routes on balls hit in any direction, quick first step and got downhill with intent through the baseball while fielding off of the right foot with a soft glove hand. Demonstrated the ability to stay behind the ball hit in the air with an accurate, high ¾ arm-slot on throws towards the target. OF - 69 mph
