‘26 Heath Persiani (@BattleBaseball1)

6’1”, 196-lb frame. Quicker pace but normal effort. The FB was 84-85 T86. Played a tick quicker. Exclusive FB/CH and showed some feel for the mid 70’s secondary offering.

Snow days and delays didn’t keep us from working on flexibility and explosiveness.

Middle school made an after school appearance too.
