Strasburg (6-0) surrendered five hits, three earned runs and three walks over six innings in the first game of a day-night doubleheader versus the Marlins. He struck out seven.
The 27-year-old ace kept a perfect record on the season, despite giving up a first-inning homer to Christian Yelich. He also tallied at least seven whiffs for the seventh straight start, although he only induced eight swinging strikes over 104 pitches. The solid run support he's received-- as well as his superior stuff-- has allowed him to escape with victories over the last two appearances. Strasburg has given up seven earned runs during the last pair of starts, but has also recorded 18 strikeouts over that span.
