EXL: Skuija’s historic performance helped Tempo to win against Eagles
There was only one TOP6 game played on Sunday, but it was dominated by American Ethan Skuija.
Skuija practically single-handedly dealt with Eagles batters, after he only allowed two hits and three walks. And as this wasn’t enough for Eagles to earn any runs Skuija has a complete game shutout. His great outing was topped with 21 strikeouts, which is the second highest in Extraliga since 2016.
