OAKLAND — Baseball, with all its oddities and weird hops and randomness over the course of a 162-game regular season, can and often will provide something...
. The 33-year old Alvin native struck out a career-high 12 batters on Thursday, including six in a row from the fourth-to-sixth innings. He gave up just three hits — one in the fourth, one in the seventh and another in the ninth — and walked just one.
Brent Rooker hit a two-out double to right field in the bottom of the seventh — the first time an Oakland runner reached second base all game — but Eovaldi answered with a strikeout of JJ Bleday to end the frame. After a 1-2-3 eighth inning, he started the ninth at 99 pitches and retired two Oakland batters before allowing a double to Ruiz. After a Maddux mound visit, Eovaldi walked Ryan Noda.
On pitches: 52% of Eovaldi’s were fastballs, a increase of his 32.4% season average for the pitch. He threw 54 of them, peaked at 98.3 miles per hour and still had enough juice to hit 96.1 mph on a ninth-inning called strikeout of Nick Allen. He threw his splitter 30 times, too, and elicited a swing-and-miss on 12 of them.
