Miz pitching one of the most Ruthlessly efficient starts of all time. 7 IP 13 Ks on just 75 pitches. I wonder how many Madduxes have been thrown with 15 Ks.

None. The previous record was 13 K's by Skubal and Kershaw.

In the first three innings, he struck out 8 batters. That requires a minimum of 25 pitches (8 K's plus at least 1 pitch to the 9th batter). He only threw 34 pitches total. That's insane.

In his last 8 starts, he's struck out 80 and allowed 1 extra-base hit.
