Live BP (Roberts) - Tyler Bowen, Jacob Pruitt - catchers - Kodey Shojinaga, Will Vierling - hitters - Juan Villavicencio, Griffin Burkholder
Observations :
Juan Villavicencio had a good session - three line drive hits by my count - was very aggressive at the dish - Jacob Pruitt read that in his first matchup with Juan, on a 2-2 count he shook off two pitches and went to a slow breaking ball that got Villavicencio off balance on his swing for a punch out - in their third matchup Pruitt got a two strike count again and shook off the signal to go to a fastball - Villavicencio laced it to right field for a knock.
Position Players : Defensive practice on Carlton Field, BP in indoor cages
Happy Day, Happy Baseball ⚾️
