Having a blast playing for the Red Hots in the @mgfmarshalls summer collegiate league! Great teammates & coaches β love heading to the field every day. New PR of 94 mph (avg 88-89), 3rd in Kβs & 4th in IP. Facing studs. Pumped for @slccbaseball next month! π₯
With a top velo of 94 in the @mgfmarshalls league today vs the Royals and Riverton coaches. (Zoom in on scoreboard in first video to see the 94) with 17 pitches 90+ in a 4 innings of 2 hit , 1 run, 5k outing - against a team of D1 commits @slccbaseball commit
As a sophomore on varsity @bostonhatch28 in 6A competition this spring for Riverton High School, had a team best .199 BAA over 42.2 innings and a WHIP just under 1.20 (team best). He can flat out pitch. Whenever he was on the mound I knew we were gonna win. @JonathanHatch3
Boston Hatch (β28, UT) struck out five in 4.2 innings this AM. Projectable 6-5 frame. Easy mover. T84 w/ the FB and showed feel for a quality CH and SL (clips). Intriguing follow. #UBCWest @PG_FourCorners

Dominate big time 6a elimination game playoff performance form Sophomore LHP Boston. Did a great job trusting his defense and getting weak contact. Made big pitches when he needed to execute.
56% Early and 84% E+A.
Must follow name for summer and next year.
Not surprised. Ryders always been a stud. Glad to see him get his chance to shine on the big stage. @RyderHuntsman24
We've been covering baseball in this state for nearly 20 years and we have seen a lot of amazing pitchers in that time.
We may have just witnessed the best performance by a pitcher we have ever seen!
Ryder Huntsman of Pleasant Grove was DOMINANT from the bump today, throwing 6 perfect innings with 15 of the 18 outs coming via strikeouts!

Clutch!!! @Rex1James
If we have learned anything in our 20 years of covering high school baseball in Utah, it's never a matter of 'if' the Lehi bats get rolling, its 'WHEN!'
Lehi exploded for 7 runs in the final 3 innings today as they took down Corner Canyon at the Ball Park at America First Square.
James Rex did most of the damage racking up 4 RBIs in the game for the Pioneers!

Probably the best uncommitted Junior in the country. 2 way Shortstop. Dominating at the plate in one of the best pitching Regions in the history of 6A Utah Baseball. And heβs as good off the field as he is on the field. A true hidden gem. Insanely athletic! Leading 6A in HRβs,
100%. Seems like this old school approach is slowly dying out but it can't die out fast enough.
The Kelce brothers accidentally explained one of the longest-running training mistakes in professional sports in under 30 seconds.
A pitcher's delivery takes 1.5 seconds. The rest period before the next pitch is roughly 20 seconds. A starter who throws 100 pitches in a game produces somewhere between 2 and 3 minutes of total physical exertion across a 3-hour window. The work-to-rest ratio is approximately 1:20.
That ratio maps almost perfectly to the ATP-CP energy system, the anaerobic pathway that powers movements lasting under 10 seconds. Sprinting. Jumping. Swinging a bat. Throwing a 97 mph fastball. Every meaningful action in baseball lives in this system.
Distance running trains the opposite system. Aerobic metabolism. Slow-twitch muscle fibers. Type I fibers that are smaller, produce less force, and prioritize fatigue resistance over power output. Elite sprinters carry 60-80% fast-twitch fibers. Elite endurance athletes carry 60-95% slow-twitch. A 2008 study on collegiate baseball players found that combining endurance training with power training produced measurable drops in power output.
You are literally remodeling the engine in the wrong direction. Training the aerobic system when every sport-specific action runs on anaerobic fuel.
The tradition started decades ago because games last 3 hours and coaches confused game duration with physical demand. A game lasting 3 hours does not mean the athlete is exerting for 3 hours. A pitcher standing on the mound between pitches is recovering, not working. The correct training analog is a sprinter who runs 100 meters, walks back, and goes again.
Driveline Baseball, Eric Cressey, and every major sports science program has been publishing this data for over a decade. Strength coaches at the MLB level largely moved to sprint-based and med ball protocols years ago. But the foul-pole-to-foul-pole jog still persists at the high school and college level because the coaches who played in the 90s trained that way and never updated.
The Kelces just explained it to 3 million people faster than any journal ever could.

β27 OF Connor Ybarra (Pleasant Grove)
Athletic, toolsy player with an RBI triple to deep LF in the early goings of a big matchup. Confident in the box and swings with intent.
