Jake Irvin struck out a career high 10 batters last night in Atlanta’s Truist Park, tossing six scoreless frames on 90 pitches, 58 strikes, but Braves’ starter Max Fried held the visiting Nationals off the board through eight in the pitchers’ duel.
Washington’s offense was 0 for 3 with runners in scoring position on the night, and were shut out in a 2-0 loss, connecting for seven hits total, all off of Fried, but two outs on the basepaths and four double plays helped the opposing starter.
Jake Irvin, K'ing the Side in the 1st.
