2021 New England Indoor Showcase (Sunday)
Jacob Benedict is a 2022 OF with a 5-10 164 lb. frame from South Glastonbury, CT who attends Glastonbury. Recorded a 7.17 second sixty-yard dash time. Medium, high waisted frame with long levers and room to fill out. Primary outfielder with athletic actions throughout the fielding process, clean funnel out in front and well-maintained momentum through release. Exhibits short, active footwork to field, while gathering cleanly into an over-the-top arm slot. Recorded online, accurate throws up to 87 mph during drills with true carry to the bags. Right-handed hitter that hits from even based stance with a high hand set, high back elbow and leg lift trigger. Incorporates rotational lower half mechanics and downward swing path to get to contact, while flashing some compact bat speed and hand quickness. Middle-of-the field approach with consistent bat-to-ball skills and line drive impact to the gaps, will continue to improve with proper swing adjustments and additional strength. Good Student.
