"Meyer became just the second pitcher in MLB history to record 14 or more strikeouts with zero walks in a start of six innings or fewer."
"Marlins manager Clayton McCullough praised Meyer's control: "He was gross... I couldn't think of a better start.""
"Meyer expressed, "It was obviously a special start for me... every pitch is doing exactly what you want it to.""
"Initially projected as a late-inning reliever, Meyer secured a rotation spot, emerging as the Marlins' most reliable starter with a 2.10 ERA."
Max Meyer achieved a remarkable milestone by striking out a career-high 14 batters in a victory against the Cincinnati Reds, contributing significantly to his teamâs 6-3 win. The 26-year-old led six shutout innings with no walks. This performance places him in rare company, as only Randy Johnson has achieved 14 strikeouts without issuing a walk in six innings or fewer since 2001. Meyer's impressive streak and dominant skills have reshaped perceptions of his potential; originally viewed as a reliever, he is now the Marlins' most dependable starting pitcher with a low ERA of 2.10 over five starts this season.
