Milwaukee Brewers: Tobias Myers Had 1 Outlier Statistic During Dominate Performance Against The Pittsburgh Pirates.
Milwaukee Brewers rookie Tobias Myers looked dominant against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday, July 10 as he delivered eight shutout innings, allowed just four hits, walked one, and struck out six. Of these statistics there was one outlier and it was a result of the impeccable command that he had.
In this game Tobias Myers recorded six strikeouts in which all six of the opposing Pirates batters went down looking. Recording six punch outs looking was a result of him consistently dotting the corners and post game Myers indicated that catcher William Contreras leaned into how well he was commanding the ball low and outside that night. Prior to Tuesdays game the most strikeouts looking in a game by a Brewers pitcher this year was three.
Tobias Myers now has two outings consisting of eight shutout innings.
