LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2018 West Academic Showcase
Erik Larson is a 2019 RHP/3B with a 6-2 175 lb. frame from Oceanside, CA who attends El Camino. Large frame with long limbs and a lean build. Frame projects to support additional strength. Primary right handed pitcher with a small side step to medium leg lift delivery. Stays tall on back side at gather and works to the plate with drop and drive actions. Deep arm circle at take back and released from a high three-quarters arm slot. Fastball generated solid downhill tilt through the zone with some running actions back to arm side. Curveball had 12/6 shape with good spin and late depth in the upper 60's. Tends to slow arm speed slightly with breaking ball, but flashed the late breaking when maintaining arm speed through extension. Also showed a changeup offering that had sink to the bottom of the zone in the low 70's. Effectively attack the strike zone and induced weak contact throughout each inning of work. Good student as well.
