Simply the Best: Cristopher Sánchez makes Phillies history

Episode Description from the Publisher

Cristopher Sánchez on Wednesday passed Grover Cleveland Alexander for the longest scoreless innings streak by a Phillies pitcher since 1893. Sánchez’s streak of 44 ⅔ innings is the seventh-longest in MLB in the live-ball era (1920). It’s 11th in MLB in the modern era (1900). He can move into fifth place on the moder-era list with just four scoreless innings in his next start. Can he possibly pass Orel Hershiser? We take a trip down memory lane, talking about Hershiser, Carl Hubbell, Rob Thomson and more. ⚾ 🔔 Love the show?
