Sadly, Max Yenchko posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Lutheran over North Mac on Wednesday. North Mac had no answer to Yenchko as he struck out seven batters over 3.2 innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off three hits (and not a single walk). Yenchko has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in three consecutive pitching appearances.
