Cam Schlittler threw his 8th start of the season of 6 IP and 1 or fewer ER allowed... tied for most in MLB 🔥 His 1.82 ERA is tops in the AL... and he is the 5th Yankees pitcher since 1961 with sub-2 ERA through their first 15 starts of a season ⚾️

Logan Webb leads all pitchers (min. 100 GS) in HR/9 (.621) & ranks 9th in IP (1129.2) since debuting in 2019. The only other pitcher to debut in the modern era to rank 1st in MLB in HR/9 (min. 100 GS) & top 10 in IP over his first 8 MLB seasons is Clayton Kershaw (2008-2015).

Skubal hits 100 mph in the 4th inning in Cleveland. His day is over after 4 2/3 innings, 80 pitches, 5 hits, 3 runs (2 earned), 1 walk, 4 Ks. His stuff is there, which bodes well for the lefty and the Tigers.

From the great @SlangsOnSports: That Schneemann homer off Skubal was just the fifth in Skubal's career on an 0-2 count, and it was just the third HR by a lefty on an 0-2 count.

The Five 1. The Miz throws 104.5 mph in one-hit shutout; no walks, 15 Ks. Cy frontrunner? 2. Yordan Alvarez two HR in first inning. AL MVP frontrunner? 3. Like Old Times: Red Sox 3 HR, dominate in Fenway. Gray is 8-1, 3.03. 4. White Sox pick up 37th win, over LAD. 6 games over .500. 5. Busch splashdown in McCovey Cove; Cubs stay 2 games over .500.
