PG Indoor Showcase - Questions from a Rookie Dad

BaseballinCT1,000+ posts

2019 P/OF will attend his first PG showcase next week in NY (one day/indoor). I searched this site and the PG site briefly but couldn't find answers to the following questions, so please feel free to respond (and forgive my ignorance!):

1. When are the pitchers gunned? During warmup/bullpen/side session(?) or on mound during the simulated game or all of the above? I don't want him to go full-out in bull pen if he won't be gunned til the game.

2. Hitters use wood bat only?

3. For Zepp testing, does everyone use the same bat supplied by PG? Do the kids just hand the bat to the next hitter when done? I believe everyone uses 32/29 (son uses 33).

4. Are the gun times displayed somewhere for all to see, including spectators? If not, do the kids find out their readings (pitching/IF-OF Throws/EV) at the time?

Thanks in advance!

1. If there are games, velocity will be recorded at that time. Otherwise, bullpen is the only option. 2. Wood only. 3. Same bat, just hand it over to the next hitter. 4. Velocity is not displayed live(unless it is?) but typically within a few hours of measureable information being collected, it is input into the system on the PG site for the public to see.
