Eye is good, he reads the ball out of the hand. Doesn’t like to swing at off speed. Draws walk in 3rd and 5th both on 3-2 couts. He knows the zone with eye.

Pops up to 1b. He is late tonight vs Mahoney. However, not against Diamond who he fools him with a change. Fires his hands nicely, hips are slower sometimes (not always). Catching was spotless which is rare praise indeed in AFL2025.

Hits into routine 4-6-3. Ugh. He allows several passed balls / wild pitches so catching isnt so good tonight. Swings and misses late several times too. Not a great bat today either. Walks on 4 pitches vs Wheat and on 6 pitches vs Rodriguez. All told, he walks 3 times in the game.

Flies out to deep RF. Just got under it a tiny bit. Grounds a single to RF. He has a quick bat swing

Strikes out to end 1st. Nothing else of note

HBP in 2nd leading off. Homers to RC in 4th on a nice shot that just cleared the wall. Looks competent at catcher today. RIPS a long liner to the track with winning run on 2nd but CAUGHT. Nori! He is a legit prospect

Flies to deep straight way CF and caught at the 410 sign on track. He popped that one! Fumbles pitches and has a weaker arm today. But blocks balls well. And he takes a walk in the 5th to keep a big rally going.

Just missses a jack in 2nd caught by CF. Grounds a single to RF in 4th. He has a quick powerful batt with ideal mehanics. He is the real deal. See the ball well and puts in play in addition to power. His low pitch swing has the typical loop but not extreme and just allows him to hit it HARD. He can be fooled by change. Walks in 8th.

Lined a double up the alley leading off the 2nd. He was going up the middle all the way

Draws a walk to load the bases in the 5th. But he did it in the 9th. With one and and 2 out he JACKED it off the wall for a walk off game winning hit. He can drivve it and the pitcher supplies 98 MPH on FB.
