Shove Day: Vanderbilt commit dominates at USA Baseball Championships

There’s a reason he’s ranked #4 in the country. Eli Herst is a name you’ll be hearing a lot over the next few years. The 6-5 right-handed pitcher out of Seattle, WA is committed to Vanderbilt and widely regarded as the top arm in the state of Washington—and one of the most dominant pitchers in the entire Class of 2026.

In this episode of POv, we follow Herst on Shove Day with the Trosky/Milwaukee Brewers Scout Team as he takes the mound at the USA Baseball Team Championships in Peoria, AZ. Topping out at 94 mph, Herst was dominant on the bump as he led Trosky to the win in the tournament opener.

This is POv: Eli Herst.
