After dropping the two out of three to the Los Angeles Angels over the last couple days, the Houston Astros received a fantastic outing from starting pitcher, Dallas Keuchel in the 4-0 shutout of the New York Yankees Thursday afternoon.
Now, for those who tend to go with the flow or haven’t been around long enough – Keuchel became only the sixth pitcher in big league history to work a complete game while striking out 12 batters. Other guys who accomplished this rare feat include Chris Carpenter, Roger Clemens, Chuck Finley, and Bartolo Colon.
