Jackson Carder posted a new career-high in strikeouts on Monday. He struck out four batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off six hits (and only one walk). He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances.
Looking ahead, Carder and Apollo will look to defend their home field on Tuesday against Owensboro Catholic. The Eagles got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Aces thanks in part to Carder: he went 3-for-4 with two RBI. Can he match (or beat) that performance? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
