7/17/24
Cunningham picked up the victory in Rhino’s 2-0 victory on Friday. Cunningham worked efficiently over five and one-thirds innings of work - innings which saw him strikeout eight and allow zero runs. In the strong performance, Cunningham allowed just three hits and ran his fastball up to 82 mph. The right hander also featured offspeed that spun between 2,400 and 2,600 rpm (T2640) and sat at 68-71 mph. Cunningham’s delivery was simple and easy as he had to throw with intent from a 5-foot-8, 135-pound frame. Ultimately, Cunningham’s outing is one that keeps him as an interesting name-to-watch in Illinois’ 2026 class.
