LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2024 14U Main Event Showcase  
Branden Cruz is a 2029 OF with a 5-7 139 lb. frame from Decatur, IL. Lean young build. Right handed hitter, hits from a spread stance with a busy hand load, short and compact upper body swing, limited extension and separation though contact, middle of the field line drive approach, can improve his lower half use to help drive his swing. 7.70 runner in the sixty. Primary outfielder on defense, step by step action through the ball, tends to stop his momentum to throw, throws uphill off his back foot, more arm strength there immediately with better mechanics.
