Nick Madrigal has 0 RBI and is having what can only be described as a legendary game.
3 walks in 3 PAs. 32 pitches seen. 3 overturned strike 3 calls. Two Dodgers pitchers removed because of the labor he's caused.
Jhoan Duran in save opportunities: 15-for-15, 0.00 ERA.
Phillies win 8-6. They are 25-10 since Don Mattingly took over. That is the best record in the Majors.
17 years ago, Randy Johnson became the very last pitcher to cross the 300 win threshold with 6 innings of 1-run ball (0 ER) against the Nationals.
Hard to imagine another pitcher ever doing it. Johnson accomplished the feat at 45.
Cristopher Sanchez's glorious shutout streak ends after 50.2 innings on Padres CF Jackson Merrill's two-out, run-scoring single in the 7th inning.
It's the fifth-longest streak in MLB history.
Quite amusing to learn that the Hurricanes GM is basically the Howie Roseman of Hockey and grew up a diehard Flyers fan in the suburbs. He even wrote on a Flyers blog.
But, god forbid the Flyers ever hire someone who didn’t play for them.
