#1 Pitcher Trophy Won by Volcanoes Mars Sunday, October 19th , 2110
He's in the early phase of his career, but this past season Mike Mars performed like a veteran on the hill for the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes and walked away with the Northwest League Pitcher of the Year Award in the process.
The 22-year-old Volcanoes star fashioned a 10-2 won-loss record in 2110 with a 1.15 ERA. In 109.1 innings of work and 16 starts, Mars struck out 108 while giving up 69 hits and 19 walks. He held opposing batters to a .177 average.
