In his comeback game against the Toronto Blue Jays, he pitched five-plus innings, giving up two runs and striking out five batters. Notably, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit a solo homer off him. Strider's impressive minor league rehab performance, where he struck out 13 batters, raised hopes for his contribution to the struggling Braves, who need a lift as they look to improve their season record.
