WVU Baseball Great Alek Manoah Reaches MLB Milestone
In his first start since his dominant performance in the MLB All-Star Game, former West Virginia pitcher and current Toronto Blue Jay Alek Manoah picked up right where he left off and achieved a career milestone.
Manoah, who was named an All-Star this season for the first time in his still young MLB career, struck out 7 Boston batters in 6 full innings and earned the win, his 11th of the season.

The 24-year-old allowed only one run in the gem of a start. Manoah now currently owns a double digit win total on the season, which marks a new single season best after going 9-2 during his rookie year and winning 9 games throughout the first half of this season.
