52.7% hard-hit
Bryce Eldridge is hitting 52.7% of his batted balls at 95+ mph this season, against a league rate near 39%. His barrel rate is 12.2%, so this is hard contact that is not all finding the ideal launch angle. He's facing Mitch Bratt tonight. Hard-hit rate counts a 105 mph ground ball the same as a 105 mph fly ball — it is the broader contact signal, not a home run signal on its own.
