LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2023 Sunshine West Showcase
Matthew Bernath is a 2024 SS/2B/3B with a 5-11 160 lb. frame from Riverside, CA who attends Centennial. Features a medium/athletic build that moved well at SS. Works low to the ground with light feet that get him set into good posture and give him quality range to both sides. Showed present glove skills with some glove-to-hand quickness which helped him get off throws quickly. Showed a shorter arm action that worked with some easy effort strength and accuracy across the diamond. Defense translated in-game as well with several tough ranging plays he was able to make. At the plate, sits in a relaxed stance with loose hands. Hands/barrel take back slightly with a higher elbow with a no-stride lower half that keeps him balanced. It’s a shorter/connected swing where he turns fast and where his hands flashed quickness. Produced a lot of pull side barrels during his round and had a hard line drive knock up the box during gameplay. 7.16 60 yd.
