Overview
- Eovaldi delivered eight innings of one-hit ball with six strikeouts in a 2-0 victory over the Yankees on August 5.
- He has allowed one run or fewer in 13 of his last 14 starts, a run-prevention streak not seen since Bob Gibson’s 1968 campaign.
- His 1.38 ERA across 19 starts this season ranks as the fifth-lowest mark through a pitcher’s first 19 outings in MLB history.
- After missing a month with a right triceps injury in late May, he returned to post a 0.59 ERA over five July starts to earn American League Pitcher of the Month honors.
- By early August, Eovaldi had logged 111 innings—five shy of the requirement for official ERA leaderboards and All-Star selection.
