LHP/1B Jordan Harmon (Tolono Unity, 2028; @wow_factor_618) getting it done at the plate, driving in a run on this single to CF.

Tossed a scoreless inning out of the ‘pen earlier today.

[Diego @DeegsBaseball]

LHP Jake Weinhoeft (O’Fallon, 2028) settling in as he’s gone on for @wow_factor_618.

Athletic southpaw that’s pitching with pace & rhythm.

Working FB arm side, showing advanced feel for diving CH that’s getting consistent S/M.

Two hits today for MIF Reed Robinson (Waltonville, 2028; @wow_factor_618), both of them the other way, including this single here.

Athletic up-the-middle defender, hitting leadoff in this look.

[Diego @DeegsBaseball]

LHP Jordan Harmon (Tolono Unity, 2028) with a highly intriguing look out of the ‘pen for @wow_factor_618.

Worked his FB into the low-80s & matched a big, sweeping SL with it for strikes & S/M.

OF Austin Thompson (Charleston, 2028; @wow_factor_618) stays inside this pitch and barrels it the other way.

Like the hacks C/CIF Grant Reed (@FMCHSBaseball, 2028) has taken today.

Aggressive and strong off the barrel, does a job with 2K & drives this pitch to CF for a SAC fly.

Also had a backside barrel in his first AB.

RHP Jonathon Caudle (O’Fallon, 2027; @wow_factor_618) settling in nicely as he’s gone on in his outing.

FB playing in the low-80s & spinning upper-60s SL off it.
