Murphysboro came out on top against Anna-Jonesboro on Monday thanks in part to Oliver Kartje's efforts. Kartje turned in his biggest game of the season, striking out seven batters over five innings while giving up three earned runs off seven hits.
Coming up, Kartje and Murphysboro will look to defend their home field on Tuesday against Crystal Lake South at 4:30 p.m. Crystal Lake South will enter the matchup having just beaten Boylan Catholic, so Murphysboro will have to guard against a team looking to keep the ball rolling.
