Howdy Johnson Game Report: @ Highland

Platte Valley was led to victory by Howdy Johnson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Tuesday.

He has been consistent recently: he hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in five consecutive pitching appearances.

Johnson and Platte Valley will be playing in front of their home fans against Sterling at 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday. Johnson has dominated as far as hits are concerned (he's averaged 2 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Sterling has only allowed 6.86 per game this season.
