MacKenzie Gore dominates Phillies in stellar outing
by Chris Schommer | Nationals Correspondent | Sun, Sep 29th 8:55am EDT
MacKenzie Gore delivered a masterful performance, allowing no earned runs on three hits and one walk while striking out nine over six innings in the Nationals' 6-3 victory over the Phillies.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing was a bright spot in what has been a season of ups and downs for Gore, who entered the game with a somewhat bloated ERA of 3.90 and a WHIP of 1.42. His high strikeout rate of 9.8 K/9 continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues that reward strikeouts, and his performance today should reassure fantasy managers about his potential despite his inconsistent win-loss record. Gore's ability to suppress runs in this game, combined with his solid strikeout-to-walk ratio, suggests that he can be a key contributor when he maintains control and limits base runners.
