The #8th ranked 2028 in the Ohio rankings would provide an electric look out of the leadoff spot for the Hit Dogs on Friday afternoon. Vondersaar would find the barrel multiple times for a couple of absolute lasers off the bat in a 3-for-5 performance with a triple and two doubles. Innate barrel feel stands out with huge bat speed and easy leverage through the zone. Adjustability in the path with excellent pitch recognition allows for Vondersaar to get on time with velo or spin. The incoming sophomore maintains great balance through impact with feel for the zone. High-floor tools litter the profile for Vondersaar with still so much more to project upon throughout the physical, athletic 5-foot-11 frame. Vondersaar would show off the two-way prowess later in the week as well as he would hop on the mound and churn out an electric start. Striking out 12 across 5.1 IP. Fastball lived 83-85 and curveball played well off the fastball at 73-76 with sharp depth (2800 + RPM).
