ARLINGTON – A night after Jacob deGrom threw what would be his final pitch of the season, Nathan Eovaldi took the mound for the Rangers to a thumping Gary...
“It works,” Eovaldi said Wednesday with a slight laugh before the Rangers’ 1-0 loss to St. Louis, snapping their five-game winning streak. “New team. New guys. But it’s more coincidence than anything else.”Perhaps what wasn’t so much of a coincidence: Eovaldi’s performance that night. A complete game, a three-hit shutout of the Yankees.
Gray allowed four hits, the lone run coming on Alec Burleson’s golfed homer on a slider with two outs in the eighth. Gray wanted to get the ball just a little further away from the left-handed hitter. The 100-pitch complete game was the second complete game of Gray’s career, the first in more than six years. It was also the first nine-inning complete game on 100 or fewer pitches by a Ranger since Cole Hamels in 2017. Gray struck out 12.,” manager Bruce Bochy said. “He threw a beautiful game.
“I don’t feel like we need to deliver a message,” Eovaldi said. “We have excelled. We’ve done everything right in every aspect. Losing Jacob is a big loss for us and we hate, but the way everybody is throwing, it’s going to be OK. We are feeding off each other right now. We have confidence in every [area] of the game.”, he focused on the rotation – almost exclusively. He bet on a veteran pitching coach in Mike Maddux and veteran pitchers who do not beat themselves with walks.
Gray has lauded the suggestion as the kind of help he’d never gotten from a teammate. It made him feel more balanced and controlled on the mound. His slider is once again devastating. Before Burleson jumped on the first-pitch slider below the zone with two outs in the eighth for a solo homer, Gray had extended his scoreless streak to 20.2 innings. Since May 8, Gray has allowed just four runs – three of them on bases-empty homers – in 43 innings. His ERA in that stretch: 0.84.
