KINGS OF Ks: Tonight's Hops starter, Jared Miller, has already broken the franchise single-season record for wins with seven, surpassing Ben Eckels' six victories in 2013. Miller's 52 K's this year leave him eight shy of Eckels' club record of 60, also from 2013. But Miller is not alone. His teammate, Carlos Hernandez, has also amassed 60 K's this year to lead the NWL. Hernandez, too, can break Eckels' mark in his next start on Sunday.
