In a year that is setting records for home runs and offense, a game dominated by pitching has been harder and harder to find. On this specific Friday in Flushing, New York, amazing pitching performances took center stage all night long.
Jacob deGrom was as advertised on this Friday night in Flushing, as was expected. Unexpectedly, Mike Foltynewicz was ready to match him for pitch for pitch. Both starters went sevens and yielded only one run in one of the better pitching duels Braves fans have had the chance to see this season.
