Craig Dedelow of Spire City Ghost Hounds Hits 20/20 Club

The Spire City Ghost Hounds’ Craig Dedelow, with 20 home runs and 28 stolen bases in 2023, has joined the independent Atlantic League’s 20/20 club.

Dedelow, 28, is the second Atlantic League player this season–along with Gastonia Honey Hunters’ Zachery Jarrett, who achieved the feat for the second straight season–to become a part of the 20/20 club.  Jake Skole was the first player in Atlantic League history to achieve the feat, as he accomplished it last year with the Honey Hunters.

Additionally, Dedelow, an outfielder, sports a .382 on-base percentage with 20 doubles and two triples in 347 at-bats in 96 games so far this campaign.

The Chicago White Sox selected Dedelow in the 9th round of the 2017 MLB June Amateur Draft out of Indiana University Bloomington.
