Texas Rangers right-hander Jacob deGrom has opened a new chapter in Major League Baseball.

DeGrom started at home against the Seattle Mariners in the 2025 Major League Baseball at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas on the 5th (Korea time) and became the winning pitcher with three hits, two walks, three strikeouts and one run in five innings.온라인카지노

He has won two consecutive games this season. In the previous five games, deGrom had only one loss without a win. His ERA was not bad at 3.33, but he failed to win. He secured his first win of this season by allowing six scoreless innings against the Athletics on the 1st, and continued his upward trajectory.

DeGrom was drafted by the New York Mets in the ninth round of the 2010 Rookie Draft. He made his major league debut in 2014 and won the National League Rookie of the Year award with 9 wins, 6 losses and a 2.69 ERA.

Since then, he has become the best pitcher in the Major League beyond the National League. He was named the first All Star in 2015 with 14 wins and eight losses and an ERA of 2.54. He had a phenomenal ERA of 1.70 in 2018 and won the Cy Young Award for the first time in his career despite his average classical stat of 10-9, and won the back-to-back Cy Young Award with 11 wins and eight losses and an ERA of 2.43 the following year. He ranked third in the Cy Young Award voting with 4 wins, 2 losses and a 2.38 ERA in 2020, which was held as a shortened season.

Due to his injury, he has been labeled "eat and run," not "the strongest." He has been suffering from major and minor injuries since 2021, and his playing time has gradually decreased. With the 2023 season just around the corner, deGrom signed a five-year, 185 million-dollar contract with Texas. However, he was out for the 2023 season after Tommy John surgery. He returned to the mound at the end of 2024 and recorded an earned run average of 1.69 without losing or losing in three games.

"I dreamed of making a perfect comeback this season. I warmed up with one win, two losses and an ERA of 4.50 at exhibition games," he said. "However, when pitching, my body opens early and I had difficulty controlling my ball." He is not in his prime as he entered the regular season, but he can expect a revival.

He got off to a good start. He had a hit after the first inning with two outs, but ended the inning with a catcher's fly ball. In the second inning, he garnered three ground balls to complete the inning.

The ball didn't work in the third inning. Leo Rivas had a hit after one out. Rivas immediately stole second base. J.P. Crawford's hit put him on the first and third bases with one out. Jorge Polanco hit a grounder to the second base, and third baseman Rivas homered. He gave up four walks in succession, loading the bases with two outs. He grounded out Randy Arozarena to the third base, and ended the game with a hard time.

In the bottom of the third inning, Texas immediately scored six points to lighten deGrom's shoulder. DeGrom committed three outs in both the fourth and fifth innings. He finished the day's mission by substituting for Jacob Webb at the start of the sixth inning. Texas won the game 8-1.

According to MLB.com , DeGrom had 1,700 strikeouts in the shortest game in Major League history. DeGrom had 1,699 strikeouts before the game, and with one out without a runner in the first inning, he struck out Polanco with 1,700 strikeouts. "This is the fastest time in 225 games in Major League history since 1901," MLB.com said. "He beat the record of 230 games held by Randy Johnson and Darvish Yu."

After the match, deGrom said, "I feel great. The goal is to win. The biggest goal of the team is to win somehow. Whether the offense helps us or the pitchers support the offense, the entire team should find a way together."

"Today's pitching was not perfect, but one run in five innings is a great start," Bochy said. "I pitched a little harder today, but he's a really outstanding pitcher. It's good to see him clearly controlling his ball, calm and healthy throwing."
