Cole surpasses Guidry for most double-digit K games in Yankees history

Gerrit Cole made New York Yankees history Sunday, surpassing Ron Guidry for the most double-digit strikeout outings in franchise history.

In recording his 10th strikeout of Sunday's game against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field, Cole notched his 24th double-digit strikeout contest since joining the historic franchise in 2020.

The six-time All-Star's momentous punchout came against Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle in the fifth inning:

Cole wound up striking out 11 over six innings of work before turning it over to the bullpen. He allowed one run on two hits and one walk.

Despite the record-breaking effort, Cole was stuck with the no-decision as the Rockies won 8-7 in extra innings.

The six-time All-Star is putting together another great season with New York, entering Sunday with a 2.85 ERA and 3.43 FIP over 19 games. This marks his third game this year with 10 or more strikeouts.
