After Another 10-Strikeout Outing, Chase Burns Joins Rare Air With Reds
One thing is clear since Chase Burns made his MLB debut: He’s still missing plenty of bats. In his sixth outing for the Reds on Monday night at Great American Ball Park, the flame-throwing righthander racked up 10 strikeouts over 5.2 innings—marking his third straight start with double-digit punchouts. According to MLB.com, Burns joined Raisel Iglesias (2015) as just the second Reds pitcher in the last 125 years to accomplish that feat. Despite his electric stuff, Burns is still searching for his first big-league win. He holds a 6.26 ERA through six starts, with 45 strikeouts and 12 walks over 27.1 innings.
