Carolina Senior Games: West - TrackMan Pitching Leaders
November 1, 2023
PBR was at Catawba College on Sunday October 22, 2023 for the Carolina Senior Games West. This was the 2nd of a two part Senior Games series with North Carolina and South Carolina 2024 graduates putting their best foot forward as we close in on the early signing period for this year's senior class. Position players arrived first going through some agility and athletic testing with Swift Athletics, followed by multiple rounds of live BP on the game field at Catawba. After BP, position players worked through their defensive positions in the pre-game setting. As the workout portion of the day concluded, the players readied for an 8 inning scrimmage with live arms throwing.
PBR Scouts were very impressed with the roster on hand for the Carolina Senior Games West. Many of these players will be given the chance to play at the next level and many may make a quick impression once they arrive on campus. As PBR breaks down results of the workout and game play, we will be working through several leader boards and scout note blogs to bring information to college coaches and baseball fans that are following the 2024 class.

Average Effective Velocity
Effective velocity is taking into account the velocity of each pitch, its release distance, the pitches time to the plate / hitting area, and the pitches movement. With all of this information, Effective Velocity is allowing coaches and scouts to more accurately compare how a pitch is affecting a hitter.

Average Induced Vertical Movement
Induced vertical movement tracks how the ball rides through the zone, or sinks through the zone. For the purpose of this board we are tracking which fastballs showed the most ride, typically leading to more swing and miss opportunities

Average Horizontal Movement
Horizontal movement is often referred to as run. This measurement does not distinguish between early and late movement, just the overall amount the ball tracks to the arm side out of the hand.
