It was just another day at the office for ASU’s offense.
Ten runs, eight hits and eight walks against a Notre Dame pitching staff that left much to be desired if you were a fan of the Fighting Irish.
Heading into the season everyone knew that the Sun Devils offense was the strength of the team. A year ago, ASU finished second in the Pac-12 in slugging percentage and batting average.
But what Sun Devil fans maybe didn’t expect, or count on, on opening night was a dominant performance from junior right hander Alec Marsh. On Friday night, Marsh struck out 10 batters becoming the first ASU pitcher to strike out 10 or more batters since 2016.
