LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2004 South Top Prospect Showcase
Richard Hill is a 6'1", 2005 left handed pitcher/outfielder with a nice 185 lb athletic body from Longview, TX. He has a big pause at the top of his delivery that throws off his timing and balance without providing any obvious benefit. Hill threw his fastball 73-76 mph in Waco from an over the top arm slot. Hill consistently kept his fastball low. He also threw a 68 mph slurve and 62 mph change up. There’s more in Hill’s arm with some reworked mechanics. At the plate, he uses a line drive swing plane to hit balls to every part of the field with pretty good bat speed. He also shows athletic ability and ran a 7 flat 60 yds. He threw well from the OF. Richard is a good student.
