Cole Klein posted a new career-high in strikeouts on Friday. He struck out 13 batters over seven innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (and not a single walk). He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive appearances.

Looking ahead, Klein and Tri-Valley will challenge Bloomington Central Catholic at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. The Vikings got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Saints thanks in part to Klein: he pitched seven innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits. Can he match (or beat) that stellar performance? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other baseball content.
