The Philadelphia Phillies beat the Texas Rangers on Tuesday night as left-hander Ranger Suarez delivered another gem, solidifying himself even further into the record books.
With the win, Philly moves to a league-best 35-14, while the Rangers dropped under .500 at a disappointing 24-25.
Once again, this Phillies win was punctuated by great pitching from Ranger Suarez. The lefty, who is out to a dream start, went 7.0 innings, surrendering just five hits, one earned run and two walks. He struck out 10 in moving to 9-0 on the season. He also lowered his ERA to 1.36 and has become the most reliable pitcher on a staff that includes veterans Zack Wheeler and Aaron Nola.
Suarez, who seems destined for the All-Star Game and a potential Cy Young Award this year, is also making history with his first two month performance.pitchers to go 9-0 or better with a sub-1.50 ERA in 1st 10 starts of a season, since ER official in both leagues :pitchers to go 9-0 or better with a sub-1.50 ERA in 1st 10 starts of a season, since ER official in both leagues :The 28-year-old from Venezuela made his major league debut in 2018 and is 38-21 lifetime with a 3.15 ERA.
