Atlanta Braves fans delighted as Spencer Strider ends losing streak with historic start against Miami Marlins: "I’ve seen enough. Cy Young"

Spencer Strider ended the Atlanta Braves' four-game losing streak in spectacular style on Monday night as the hosts shut out the Miami Marlins 11-0. Strider made Braves folklore as the first pitcher in the organization's 148-year history to record at least nine strikeouts in nine consecutive regular-season games.Atlanta Braves@BravesBaker's dozen.#ForTheA2678271Baker's dozen.#ForTheA https://t.co/BlXsKxt5HtStrider carried a perfect game into the seventh inning until an error on first baseman Matt Olson allowed Marlins outfielder Jazz Chisholm to reach base. The prospective no-hitter lost to a one-out single by Miami third baseman Jean Segura with one out in the eighth. Still, with his grandmother in attendance on her 90th birthday, Strider logged a gem of a game. He went eight innings, striking out 13 batters and allowing just two hits to improve to 3-0 on the season.Jomboy Media@JomboyMediaSpencer Strider's grandma spent her 90th birthday watching her grandson shove tonight 🥺56219Spencer Strider's grandma spent her 90th birthday watching her grandson shove tonight 🥺 https://t.co/07MTKGptlLThe Atlanta Braves were in need of a pick-me-up on Monday against the Miami Marlins after the team was swept at home by the Houston Astros over the weekend.

The win and a record !! Amazing 🤩@Braves @SpencerSTRIDer Outstanding game, Spencer!! The win and a record !! Amazing 🤩The Atlanta Braves scored all the runs they needed on a solo home run by catcher Sean Murphy in the bottom of the third inning. However, the Braves were far from done offensively, scoring two runs in each of the fourth and fifth innings and three runs in each of the sixth and eighth innings to level the Miami Marlins by nearly a dozen. In all, Atlanta hit four home runs on the night as part of a 12-hit blitz against visiting Miami.
