RHP Landon Dippel (O’Fallon, 2027) allowed only one hit over three IP today for @GbaDevelopment.
Pitching at 85-86 mph. Went to tight SL in the mid-70s. Showed feel for CH in the upper-70s. In the zone often.

Strong start in Chicago.
Seven Spects National teams at the Champions Cup, and through two days our groups are a combined 18-0.
Proud of the way our guys are competing and representing Spects National.
’27 C Dominic Pandolfo (MO) displays good rhythm in the box with a quick bat. Keeps the hands inside and lines this ball down the LF line for an RBI double. @SpectsBaseball@PGMidwestBB#MWChampsCup
’27 OF Corde Gage (MO) gets the foot down early and squares this pitch up, launching it over the LF fence for a HR. Stays balanced and does damage out front. #MWChampsCup@SpectsBaseball@PGMidwestBB
INF/RHP Grayden Hampton (Edwardsville, 2028) with a simple, compact swing.
Lean, athletic frame showing feel for larger parts of the field. Triples to CF on this swing ⬇️

‘28 MIF/OF Nicholas Chiarodo (IL) takes this ball to the RCF gap for a standup RBI triple. Has a long athletic frame with a big leg kick to produce some power. #MWChampsCup
‘29 RHP Mason Voss (IL) was excellent in this one. Went four innings, striking out 7 while only allowing a hit and a few walks. FB up to 83 and getting whiffs (clip). Clean & compact arm stroke. #MWChampsCup
‘30 LHP Brody Hawkins (IL) worked all 5 innings of his game and had impressive stuff. He punched out 9 on 65% strikes. FB 76-79 and worked to both arm and glove side consistently with good run. Had 2 offspeed pitches a CH 67-68 with good action and a sweeping BB 64-65. #MWChampsCup
‘29 UTL Kody Anderson (IL) rips this ball to LF for an RBI double. Solid bat path with ability to run stretching this one into two. #MWChampsCup@SpectsBaseball
LHP KJ Payne (Fort Zumwalt East, 2028) continues to intrigue in his looks this fall for @GbaDevelopment.
FB played at 83-84 T85 mph today. Feel for SL/CH mix in the upper-60s, low-70s.
