Taijuan Walker’s Dominant Start, By the Numbers
Taijuan Walker unleashed a venomous arsenal in a dominating effort against the Houston Astros at Safeco Field last night. The young fireballer tied a career high by fanning 11 hitters while only allowing 1 run in 7 innings of work. Walker punctuated what has been a sensational first month of the season. He is now the proud owner of the second best April ERA in team history for a pitcher with at least 4 starts.
Floyd Bannister 1.21 (1980)
Taijuan Walker 1.44 (2016)
Randy Johnson 1.53 (1992)
Erik Hanson 1.53 (1993)
His frigid 1.44 ERA is also 4th best in the American League.
