PARKER — Broc Weigle knows what day it is based on the uniform he is wearing.

The left-handed pitcher and first baseman is a busy guy this summer, playing for three baseball teams.

The A-C Valley graduate wouldn't have it any other way.

Weigle is playing for Karns City in the Butler County Area Baseball League, DuBois in the Tri-State Collegiate League — the same league the Butler BlueSox play in — and a travel team out of New York.

“The (BCABL) games are always throughout the week,” Weigle said. “The DuBois team is on the weekends and the travel team just does tournaments. So, it kind of works out.”

Weigle plays first base for Karns City and pitches for DuBois.

Pitching is the lanky 6-foot-3 left-hander's calling card.

Weigle turned in quite a career for the A-C Valley baseball team, despite losing his junior season to the COVID-19 pandemic.

He finished with 207 career strikeouts in just 117 innings pitched.

During his senior year, Weigle struck out 100 in 45 innings.

“I've been around A-C Valley baseball for a while,” said Falcons' coach John Irwin. “I went back through as much as I had and there's no one even close to the number of strikeouts he had. If he didn't miss a whole year, he could have had 300-plus strikeouts.”

Weigle baffled hitters with a running, mid-80s fastball and 12-6 curveball that dropped off the table.

He was also, as Irwin said, “effectively wild.”

“He doesn't give up a lot of hits,” the coach said. “The base runners he gives up are walks. Sometimes he wants to throw the perfect pitch. He was better this year than he's been in the past. He just makes you go after his pitch.

“He hides the ball well,” Irwin added. “With a big lefty and the way his delivery is, that makes that fastball get up on you real quick.”

Weigle began playing baseball when he was 4, but didn't start pitching until he was 11.

Once he did, it was apparent he was going to be very good at it.

“When I was 12 I was on a Little League team in Parker. We were 28-1 and won the championship in our league. That's the year my pitching kind of took off and when I realized it was going to be my thing.”

Weigle will pitch at Penn State DuBois next spring.

He is using this summer to add muscle to his frame. At just 160 pounds, there is room for Weigle to grow.

He's hoping his fastball velocity climbs as he gets stronger.

“He can already bring it,” Irwin said. “But when he gets to DuBois and gets on a good weight program there and a little more fundamentals with mechanics, he'll get hitting 90 here before long.”

Weigle is also working on adding a pitch or two to his repertoire.

“It's kind of a big goal of mine to add velocity and command to my fastball,” Weigle said. “I've been working on a slider. I've been trying to throw that pitch for years. But, I mean, not everyone can throw it because of their arm slot. Some days it really works and some days it doesn't. I come over the top, so it's hard to throw a slider from that position.”

A changeup, though, is a different story.

“I'm throwing a two-seam changeup that also has some run,” Weigle said. “So it drops down and runs out.”

He's still trying to master it, but he said it is coming along.

Making him even more difficult to hit.

Weigle's plan is to go to Penn State DuBois for two years and then transfer to Slippery Rock University. He hopes to pitch for The Rock when he arrives.

“I hope that I get stronger, work on mechanics with the coaches (at Penn State DuBois) and keep getting better,” Weigle said. “Hopefully, I'll be able to pitch for (SRU) one day. That's my goal.”
