Chase Johnston produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Maple Mountain to the win on Wednesday. Johnston turned in nothing short of a gem: he struck out 12 batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't pitched less than six innings in three consecutive pitching appearances.
Johnston and Maple Mountain will head out on the road to challenge Timpview at 3:30 p.m. on Thursday. Johnston has dominated as far as walks are concerned (he's averaged 0.6 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Timpview has only allowed 3.61 per game this season.
