Ionic spinner within button vertical alignment

I have tried to implement a spinner within a button but for some reason the spinner seems to be top aligned instead of vertically centered:

Clik here to view.
My code is the following:

<button type="submit" class="button button-block button-positive">
<ion-spinner class="spinner-energized"></ion-spinner> Click me!
</button>

See Codepen

Any idea why?
