3 for 3, with 3 homers. Struck out 10! Gave up 2 hits. We had more home runs than hits allowed.
He was the first pitcher in MLB ever to hit a lead off home run.
And, he did that after striking out the side in the top of the first.
One of his home runs went 470', after leaving the bat at 117mph.
I guess he got tired of people wondering if he was trying to do too much.
