The Brownstown Central High School baseball players were able to determine all of these things and more on Wednesday when Erwin Bryant paid a visit.

Bryant is a supervisor for Major League Baseball’s Atlanta Braves, and when he’s not going around scouting players in Indiana, Ohio, Michigan and Kentucky, he takes time out and runs high school players from those states through professional workouts.
