Spencer Strider continues his assault on the Atlanta Braves record book. Strider broke John Smoltz’s record for strikeouts in a single season with his 277th strikeout in the first inning of Sunday’s game against the Washington Nationals. It wasn’t the start he was looking for as he allowed three runs in the inning, but struck out the side to claim the record.
John Smoltz has company.
