“Is that a screwball?” Minjae’s Splitter starting to come around!! Working on getting something to go glove side for a complete 4 pitch mix. Extremely coachable and competes his butt off every time he gets the ball! Consistently 85-88 all fall with feel for strike zone.

Splitter movement is getting better, and I’m continuing to improve my feel for the game. ⚾️

Can’t say enough great things about Mason Kates. Tremendous human being and a phenomenal pitcher that was 90-93.Should be a P4 arm but will compete wherever he goes! Great fastball that plays extremely well top of the zone, a hard late breaking slider and a good change w/ depth.

Physical arm and bat with feel of 3 pitches today. Great backend arm/middle of the lineup hitter. Creates good separation on all pitches and the change up is a real + pitch. @Jake14kruse
Soph 1B/RHP Jake Kruse (@StateFairBSBL) was 86-88 mph today with + feel for CH.
Also had a RBI single.

Kijun! Knowledgeable pitcher that pitches to his strengths. Has pounded the zone all fall and has looked great so far! Splitter is a + pitch without a doubt.
Soph RHP Kijun Ham (@StateFairBSBL) K’d two in his outing.

Threw a low-spin (800-900) RPM SPL at 77-79 mph with tumble, also spun SL, 73-74 mph.
