Episode Details

Cristopher Sanchez is on a historic tear for the Phillies, logging 44⅔ consecutive scoreless innings—the longest streak since Grover Cleveland Alexander in 1908. After a rough patch, Sanchez has silenced hitters by striking out 45 in five starts without allowing a run, matching Chris Sale’s MLB record for that span. Opponents are batting .000 with runners in scoring position, and his defense turns hard contact into outs. Acquired quietly in 2019, Sanchez has evolved into a dominant force with a unique sinker/changeup arsenal, earning a six-year extension. As he climbs the all-time scoreless streak leaderboard, Phillies fans are witnessing a resurgence that could push them back into postseason contention.
