6-6 righthander Ryan Johnson (2021, Red Oak, TX) was in complete control from start to finish for the Dallas Tigers to open day 2 of the playoffs at 17U WWBA. Johnson’s delivery is deceptive and unique in the way he stays short with his stride to the plate and with his leg lift. Johnson pretty simply turns and fires to the plate with outstanding arm strength to sit 90-93 mph with a great feel for two additional secondary pitches.
