Zac Gallen allowed only one earned run in seven innings of work, bringing an end to Arizona’s eight game losing streak.
Zac Gallen turned in one of the best starts by an Arizona pitcher this season. In doing so, Gallen has now made it 22 starts in a row to start his career in which he has yet to give up more than three earned runs in. This breaks the Major League record to begin a career, which was previously set by Boston’s Aaron Sele in 21 starts from 1993-94.
Short of a major trade or signing in the offseason, it is pretty clear who the staff ace for this team is moving forward.
