Mason Markonich posted a new career-high in strikeouts on Saturday. He struck out five batters over six innings while giving up no earned runs off four hits, good enough for us to rate the performance as the best he's had all season long. He is becoming a predictor of John Marshall's success: when he allows at most one earned run the team is 2-1 (and 4-7 when he doesn't).
Coming up, Markonich and John Marshall will be playing at home against St. Clairsville at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Monarchs have some work to do to even out the 2-7 series between these two since April of 2018, but a win here would be a good start.
