MONTGOMERY — The PRO-DAY "Alabama" High School Baseball Showcase will take place on Monday, July 16th at Faulkner University in Montgomery (AL) from 8:30 a.m. - 2:30 p.m., announced Jeff Gross, director of PRO-DAY Baseball.

The Showcase is an opportunity for high school players ( 9-12 grade ) to show their talents in front of professional scouts and collegiate coaches. The players will be evaluated in all areas from hitting, fielding, arm strength, arm accuracy, running, base running and pitching. These evaluation cards will be kept on file to monitor a player's progress throughout their high school career. PRO-DAY will also send these evaluations to three colleges of the players choice.

The PRO-DAY Caravan will be in a 12-state area this year with the "TOP 100" overall players from these showcases being selected to attend the "Best of the Best" Showcase later this fall in Orange Beach, Alabama.

Since 1989, PRO-DAY Professional Baseball Camps has taught thousands of players from all ages on all phases of the game. The camp has produced hundreds of college players and numerous professional players.

Six current and recent major league players have participated in PRO-DAY. These players include: Torii Hunter (Minnesota Twins), Dmitri Young (Detroit Tigers), T.J. Mathews (Houston Astros), Rigo Beltran (Baltimore Orioles), Billy Sadler (San Francisco Giants) and Doug Creek (Toronto Blue Jays) along with hundreds of others that have been associated with professional baseball on various levels.
