Pow is a consistent player that did everything on the diamond with similar skill. Defensively at 3B, he made the routine plays with good hands and took a good first step to create his angles. He had a tendency to rush to throw, and worked to stay in his legs for even greater velo. In the box, the lefty tracked the ball well and was aggressive to attack anything in the zone. He pulled the balls with strength and boosted his top hand involvement for added line-drive contact during the week. As a pitcher, he threw his FB with tail and sink, and spun a 9-3 SL with some back up. He got to a good balance point to start his delivery and kept his eyes on the target to repeat. In all - Christopher had a pair of singles and a double in 4 AB's and shows a bright future in the game.

05/25/2013 - Little League® Experience - S. Williamsport
Christopher has exceptional arm strength/accuracy and good athleticism as a fielder but it would benefit him to work at his agility/lateral speed. On the mound he has a good demeanor, works a good tempo, mechanics are workable and he throws strikes. Christopher should stay in-line to his target and smooth out his mechanics as a whole. As a hitter Christopher displayed good bat speed and the ability to hit to all fields. He needs to widen his stance, drive through the ball as opposed to spinning around it and stay on-plane.
