Let’s talk hitting at the #INProcase26 . It would be impossible to include them all but these guys stood out to me. @seandunlap28 @ChanceRuby1 @DesmondFrancis_ @drake_mcclurg were hammering balls last night. Chance Ruby crushing a 98! FB. incredible watching the approach by these guys. Just an impressive showing last night by these guys. They made hitting look easy. Look up the videos on our X account or @PrepBaseballIN
#dudes several hitters were in display for @CodyFowlerHit

Consider me a fan of SS Chance Ruby (WI) after last night’s Procase.

On the barrel 3x vs mid-to-upper 90s velocities. Exceptional bat to ball.

Not scared. Competitive throughout. UIC commit who looks primed for a big SR season.
