Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher
Cristopher Sanchez
dominated on Wednesday, throwing six scoreless innings and securing the win in a 7-0 triumph over the Rays. He gave up just one hit and issued three walks while recording five strikeouts. Throughout the season, he has exceeded two earned runs in a single start only once, boasting a 2.89 ERA with 44 strikeouts across 37 1/3 innings pitched so far. Despite not fanning as many hitters in this particular game, he minimized trouble by generating plenty of groundballs. This approach is typical for him; his 58.3% groundball rate in 2024 placed him among the elite pitchers nationally. Moving forward, he aims to continue this form when he faces off against the Cardinals in his upcoming appearance.
