Behind the plate, Brian has sure hands, good lateral quickness, and good body control. He has good flexibility, blocks softly, and throws with a short arm action with accuracy to 2nd base.

He has a good 1st step to the ball, fields out front, and throws with accuracy from a clean arm action to his target. Quicker feet and a softer backhand will only help spike defensive INF skills.
