Hancock Channels Johnson in 14-K Game

Mariners' Emerson Hancock delivered a career-high 14 strikeouts against the Royals, drawing a Randy Johnson comparison from Royals pitcher Seth Lugo.

Seattle Mariners pitcher Emerson Hancock channeled his inner Randy Johnson during Saturday's 3-2 loss to Kansas City, striking out a career-high 14 batters in seven innings while allowing just one earned run and zero walks.

The performance came on Johnson's jersey retirement night, and Royals ace Seth Lugo quipped after the fifth inning, "I asked the umpire if they'd brought Randy Johnson back out of retirement." Hancock became the fourth Mariner franchise player to record 14+ strikeouts with no walks, matching a feat Johnson had accomplished twice. fish-roadgame.online
