Barrett Mills (2031 C, Dexter, MO) gets the day started with a shot to left-center field for a double. Smooth left-handed swing that has good coverage of the outer half. Has shown his ability to drive the ball with authority. Staying hot with another barrel this time, driving it out to right field to collect a double.
Miles Elchert (2030 SS, O'Fallon, IL) is showing good control of the stick with a two-strike count. He keeps his barrel working flat through the zone and smashed a base hit back up the middle. Stays on another ball while way behind in the count for a single back up the middle. Good bat-to-ball in game. Did it again, got on time with the FB, and drove it to the CF wall for a leadoff double.
Kyden Orf (2031 SS, Dexter, MO) stayed inside the ball well and laced a ball to the backside for a base knock. Good control of the barrel, staying inside of the ball
Koda Hudson (2030 C, Columbia, IL) continues to show off the ability to use the backside of the field, driving balls there with ease. Has been one of the toughest outs of the weekend, putting the ball in play as often as he can.
Griffin Ruby (2030 C, Ozark, MO) is doing an excellent job driving the baseball around the yard today, whipping the barrel through the zone. Led off the inning with a double to the opposite field, keeping the bat head in the zone long.
Cameron Steeneck (2030 SS, Cave Springs, AR) was impressive on the hill, getting the fastball up to 82 and dominating at the top of the zone. Worked at a really good pace and got hitters off balance. Showed a good breaking ball in the mid-60s with good bite to it. Gave hitters issues working from a 3/4 slot.
