10/25/2024 - All-Ripken Games - Broussard, LA Levi’s performance at the All-Ripken games in Broussard, LA for Team Victory highlighted several key strengths and areas for continued development. Defensively, Levi’s ability to create an angle to the baseball and carry his momentum toward his target is an excellent trait. It demonstrates good awareness and the right mechanics to make strong, accurate throws. Making routine plays consistently is essential at any level, and Levi’s ability to do so suggests solid fundamentals. One area to focus on as he progresses is his double play feeds. Working on a more direct path to his teammate will help ensure smoother, quicker transitions and could be the difference between getting a timely double play or not. Offensively, Levi’s swing shows potential, but the fact that it tends to get long means he may not always be able to maximize his bat speed or make consistent contact. This is where specific drills, like fence or wall drills, can be incredibly beneficial. By working to keep his hands inside the ball, Levi will likely improve his bat path, allowing for more direct contact and better overall production. Refining his swing to shorten it and create a more direct path will help him increase both bat speed and the consistency of his hits. Levi is already showing strong fundamentals, and with focused work in these areas—particularly in his defensive feeds and offensive bat path—he has the potential to continue improving and become a more well-rounded player.
