Braves' Ace Strider Shocks Fans with Unexpected Performance in Season Opener
Advertisement
In 2022 and 2023, the mustachioed hurler — who recorded his 500th career strikeout on Wednesday — established himself, on a rate basis, as the greatest strikeout artist ever. Strider’s career 13.5 strikeouts per nine innings is the highest in baseball history for a starter with at least 50 starts. The second-highest tally is 11.6. With an overpowering, high-90s heater and a dastardly, ripcord slider, Strider entered 2024 primed to challenge for the NL Cy Young.
