Reply to comment by OhPiggly in 21 year old Nicaraguan pitcher Duque Hebbert signed by Detroit Tigers immediately after game in which he struck out a trio of MLB stars. by carnifex2005

So, a guy with no MLB experience gave up a double to someone with MLB experience, but also struck out three MLB stars (at least one with a World Series ring)? Sounds impressive, honestly.

Machado is one of the easiest players in the MLB to strike out.

Yeah, I struck him out twice last week. You’re ludicrous lol.

Not sure where you're getting that from except maybe you just don't like him which is understandable. Percentage wise, he struck out more last year than he ever did, and it barely cracked 20% (source: baseball reference). Other than last year, his SO% has been in the teens.
