DeGrom Hits 2K Strikes in Six Innings | Dallas News

Jacob deGrom just etched his name in MLB history with his 2,000th career strikeout—tied for his season high with 10 Ks in just six innings, surrendering only one hit and one walk. He achieved the milestone faster than any pitcher in MLB history in terms of games and innings pitched, joining an elite group since his 2014 debut. The Texas Rangers cruised to a 2-0 win over the Nationals, thanks to Corey Seager’s homer and a team shutout powered by four pitchers. With the Rangers tied for a wild card spot, deGrom’s dominance is fueling their playoff push while the Nationals, missing shortstop CJ Abrams (ankle sprain), continue their woes with their fifth shutout loss this season.
