Did Ya Know 🧐 :


McGarry “Milking” Strikeouts -  Griff McGarry turned in a Double-A high 12 strikeouts on Wednesday night, falling just one short of his career-high of 13. It was the second-straight game McGarry had double-digit strikeouts, as he posted 11 on Aug. 7 at New Hampshire; meaning he has 23 over his last two starts (11.0 IP). The last time a Fightin Phils pitcher struck out 10+ batters in consecutive starts was Moises Chace on Aug. 24 and 31, of last season. McGarry’s 12 strikeouts were the most in a single game by a R-Phil since Moises Chace sent down 13 Somerset Patriots on Aug. 31, 2024. The last time a Reading pitcher had exactly 12 strikeouts in a game was Spencer Howardon Sept. 4, 2019, vs Trenton. Over three August starts, McGarry has a 1.80 ERA (3 ER, 15.0 IP), with 27 strikeouts and four walks. - Jake Starr - Reading Director of PR/Media Relations, Client Fulfillment & Broadcaster
