Brody Bumila, an 18-year-old left-hander from Bishop Feehan High School, has drawn widespread attention with a fastball that reaches 101 mph. The 6-foot-9 pitcher is projected as a first-round selection in the July MLB Draft.
Bumila recently threw a 20-strikeout no-hitter and helped lead his basketball team to a state title with 36 points and 22 rebounds in the final. He committed to Texas but is widely expected to turn professional instead. His coach, Joe Breen, said Bumila aims to be the No. 1 overall pick and win a Cy Young Award and World Series ring.
