Top 10 Kentucky HS baseball players in Class of 2023
7. Ty Starke, P, St. Xavier
One of the top pitchers in the state regardless of class a year ago, Starke is set to once again be near the top of the ranks this season. The 6-foot-5, 170-pound southpaw is ranked as the No. 11 player in the state by Perfect Game and No. 6 by PBR.
Last year, Starke went 7-0 with a 1.24 ERA, 67 strikeouts, 25 walks and just eight earned runs in 45.1 innings pitched in eight starts. His 1.24 ERA ranked at No. 28 in the state. With Starke on the mound, the St. Xavier Tigers won the KHSAA baseball state title and he was named second-team all-state by the KHSBCA.
Like others on this list, Starke won鈥檛 travel far for his college career, as he signed with the Louisville Cardinals. With one state title already won, Starke will look to double up on the hardware as a senior this spring.
I am beyond excited to announce my commitment to the University of Louisvile. Thank you to my family, teammates and coaches that have helped guide me through this journey! Go Cards! @Zcontraining
