Stephen Strasburg strikes out seven in win over Padres
by Rose Ingberman | Mon, May 18th 10:50am EDT
It wasn't great, but Stephen Strasburg's start against the Padres was a marked improvement over his previous two outings. The righty went five innings, allowing five hits (one homer) and one walk, while striking out seven. He overcame a rough first inning (31 pitches) marred by a wild pitch and some shaky defense.
Fantasy Impact:
Strasburg (3-4, ERA 5.98) relied more on his fastball, showing good velocity and control. Hopefully, he can build on this start.
