Elite NY Catcher with 1.103 OPS and Leader Intensity
Cross Yarborough, the 2025 Class catcher from Charleston Southern, stands out as the #1 catcher in New York out of high school, now delivering a .423 batting average and 1.103 OPS in his freshman season. At 5'9" and 195 lbs, he combines elite hand speed (23.7 mph) and defensive grit with a leader’s intensity that elevates the entire dugout. While current season stats are pending, his dynamic splits and spray charts show consistent spray-hitting ability. His personality—driven, vocal, and fiercely competitive—makes him a perfect fit for teams needing a catcher who commands the pitching staff and leads by example. Injury history is clean, and his intensity level is unmatched among peers.
