Nikolas Heakins was unstoppable on Tuesday, pitching six innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his third in a row with one or fewer earned runs. On the season, he has an ERA of 1.62 over 22.2 innings pitched.
Looking ahead, Heakins and Valley will look to defend their home field on Thursday against Freeport at 4:00 p.m. The Vikings have some work to do to even out the 1-9 series between these two since May of 2015, but a win here would be a good start.
