CINCINNATI -- Rookie Chase Burns became the third pitcher since 1961 to record his first six outs via strikeout in his major league debut.
He was not able to carry the momentum through the rest of the game.
The 22-year old Cincinnati Reds right-hander, the second overall pick in last July's amateur draft, allowed three runs in five innings Tuesday night against the New York Yankees.
Burns struck out his first five batters before Jazz Chisholm Jr's single. He gave up six hits and struck out eight, the seventh Cincinnati starter to have at least that many in his first career start.
