Gore Sets Nationals Record with 13 Strikeouts
MacKenzie Gore delivered a standout performance on Opening Day for the Washington Nationals, striking out 13 batters over six innings and allowing just one hit against the Philadelphia Phillies. This performance set a franchise record for Opening Day strikeouts and made Gore the first pitcher since Bob Gibson in 1967 to record 13 strikeouts without a walk on Opening Day. Despite his efforts, the Nationals' bullpen faltered, allowing the Phillies to rally and ultimately secure a 6-2 victory in extra innings. The Nationals, who have invested significantly in their roster during the offseason, remain optimistic about making the playoffs for the first time since their 2019 World Series win. Challenges persist, particularly with the starting rotation's depth following pitcher DJ Herz's injury. Gore's promising start is seen as a potential catalyst for the team, which is looking for its young core to step up this season.
