The 22-year-old made 13 starts for the Phillies after making his big league debut back on July 21. In those starts, Nola posted a 6-2 record with a 3.59 ERA, 68 strikeouts, and just 19 walks in 77.2 innings-pitched. In Saturday’s start against the Nationals, the rookie struck out five batters and walked none over five scoreless frames.
