The go ahead run was a batter who reached first on a wild pitch strike out, stole 2nd and 3rd, and then got balked home.

Not sure how noteworthy this is, but its the first time in Major League history a pitcher had 13 K in less than 5 innings.

Threw 117 pitches too. That's impressive for 4.2 innings.

Strikouts are overrated. Ultimately its jus another out. What difference does it make if its a strikeout or a throw out? Plus, strikeout pitchers tend to throw more pitches obviously.

Getting an out while a batter doesn't make any contact is sorta huge. Prevents a sacrifice or error.

13 of 14 outs via the K.
Not bad, But probably can't hold a candle to some of our CPers best efforts. |

Someone clearly doesn't know about/believe in FIP.

Yep, there is no way to get guys out except for strikeouts.

In HS, Hootie once struck out ten men in three innings. FACT.
