Number 14 on our Top 100 Countdown is Arizona’s Johnny Field. The 5’10 outfielder from Las Vegas, Nevada was crowned the 2012 Pac-12 batting champion.

During his freshman season, Field made 52 appearances for the Wildcats, starting 46 games. He posted a batting average of .297 on the season with 35 runs, 32 RBI, 15 doubles, five triples and three home runs in addition to a slugging percentage of .491. His success earned him Louisville Slugger Freshman All-American honors.

As a sophomore, Field’s success continued to grow as he led the Pac-12 with a batting average of .370. Field also had 72 runs, 44 RBI, 18 doubles, seven triples and three home runs in addition to a slugging percentage of .529 and an on base percentage of .476. He was a First Team All-Pac-12 selection and the Most Outstanding Player of the 2012 Tucson Regional . Field also was a member of the 2012 USA Baseball Collegiate National Team.

From a scouting perspective, Field is extremely consistent at the plate and that consistency is a fantastic attribute. Defensively, Field is a strong outfielder however all of the attention is on his bat. He is a very composed and patient hitter who performs well under pressure and is extremely productive. As the defending Pac-12 batting champ, Field is also one of the top players to watch for in 2013.
