This video comes from WFAA-TV in Dallas/Fort Worth of top Freshman Matt Purke for TCU. The piece explores Matt’s upbringing and idiosyncrasies out on the mound, and why he turned down first round money from the Rangers to develop his game at TCU.
For those who haven’t been able to get out to Lupton Stadium to see Purke first hand, you’ll get a preview of a player you could see highlighted in Omaha for the next two seasons. Purke is 3-0 in 6 starts with a 4.06 ERA and a K/9 of 11.
