It was Seaver’s 19th strikeout overall, marking his career best. At the time, he was the first pitcher to strike out 19 batters in a nine-inning outing, though four pitchers have since racked up 20. López climbed the mound for the Marlins’ last game before the 2021 All-Star break and decided to make a whole bunch of history.
Who is the Marlins pitcher with the longest strikeout streak?
López needed only 35 pitches to rack up his nine punchouts, which tied Ricky Nolasco (also against the Braves) for the longest strikeout stretch by a Marlins pitcher within any point in a game. After rolling through his first time through the Braves’ order, López didn’t record a single strikeout across the other 16 batters he faced. Go figure!
