Kolt Myers — the son of former Philadelphia Phillies right-hander Brett Myers — is already making waves as a sophomore at the varsity level.
Over the weekend, Brett shared a highlight of Kolt hitting a no-doubt-about-it home run in the Florida 7A Regionals, with the news anchor dropping the line “he’s better than his dad”:
Per Kolt’s Twitter account, he’s 6-foot-1 and 180 pounds, and is both a right-handed pitcher and third baseman. While this highlight shows his offensive prowess, he says his fastball tops out at 91 mph currently, a staggering mark for someone that’s still in his first half of high school.
