Bros Baseball and Upper Deck 2024 Les ended in a 2-2 tie in their matchup Friday. Logan Ripper (2025, Clever, Mo.) started on the mound for Bros Baseball and worked deep into the game, throwing six innings, striking out six and allowing two runs on five hits and two walks. Ripper is a tall player that delivers from a high three-quarter arm slot, creating good angle with his fastball that was 77-80 mph. He also utilized a 12-6 curveball that came in at 68 mph that had good shape and downer movement.
 
Canes Midwest took down Rawlings Tigers Quad Cities 15-0 in a three inning, run rule shortened game Friday. Seth Newkirk (2024, Borden, Ind.) threw all three innings, striking out eight batters while only allowing one baserunner to score via a walk.  He primarily utilized his fastball, moving the 78-81 mph offering around the zone to generate swings and misses. He also flashed a curveball that had good shape and it sat 69 mph. He has a good frame with long arms and legs, which will allow him to continue to add easy velocity as he develops.
