Gerrit Cole now has consecutive starts with 14 Ks
First pitcher in Astros franchise history to do so (kind of amazing considering we had Nolan, Mike Scott and JR)
Only 1 pitcher has ever had at least 14 Ks in 3 straight - Pedro in Sept 1999.
Career games in an Astros uniform:
Roy Oswalt - 303
Nolan Ryan - 282
Mike Scott - 263
Roger Clemens - 84
Justin Verlander - 68
Gerrit Cole - 60
Career games with at least 14 strikeouts in an Astros uniform:
Gerrit Cole - 5
Justin Verlander - 4
Mike Scott - 3
Nolan Ryan - 2
Roger Clemens - 0
Roy Oswalt - 0
And so here are MLB standings overall thru Sept 2 (hat tip to the Rangers who finally helped us with something)
