Marlins' Jose Fernandez: Ties career high with 14 Ks in Sunday's win
Fernandez (9-2) tossed seven scoreless innings Sunday, scattering four hits and striking out 14, in a 1-0 win over the Mets.
Analysis:
The strikeouts tied a career high, and Fernandez tied a Marlins record by winning his eighth consecutive start. It's also the fourth time in his last six starts that he has struck out double-digit batters, pushing his K:BB on the season to a massive 110:25 in 74.2 innings. Fernandez will look to set a new franchise record for consecutive wins Saturday in Arizona.
