Knebel set down Mike Tauchman to surpass Julio Machado for the Milwaukee Brewers team mark. It is fitting for this mark to be set by the lone All-Star from the Brew Crew this year. To add to it all, Knebel is leading all relief pitchers across the league this season in strikeouts.
It was a record that stood for longer than Knebel has been alive. With the 99th strikeout, the 25 year old righty shattered a 26 year old record. Not a bad day at the office. It has been a great season at the office for Knebel, who boasts a rate of 15.
