Mark Mathias' career is just beginning, but he may never have as good of a game as he did Wednesday.
The Indians' No. 21 prospect homered and tripled as part of a 4-for-5 performance, while his career-high six RBIs proved to be the difference in Class A Short Season Mahoning Valley's 11-5 victory over Auburn.
After hitting a single in his first at-bat, the 21-year-old second baseman cleared the bases with a triple in the top of the second to give the Scrappers an early 5-0 lead.
Mathias collected his second single of the game in the sixth inning and then connected on a two-run homer, his second of the season, in the eighth to increase Mahoning Valley's lead to 11-1.
