Thousands of fans packed Globe Life Field in white Jacob deGrom jerseys Tuesday night, as the Texas Rangers marked a jersey giveaway with their ace on the mound and he didn’t disappoint.
DeGrom delivered yet another quality start, allowing two runs over six innings in a 10-2 win over the Baltimore Orioles. He struck out seven and walked one.
“Of course, Jacob was Jacob,” Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said. “Just another terrific job. … This guy is special. Talk about a feeling of confidence with the team. I’ll keep saying it, I love watching him. You can feel it with the crowd.
You can. Just a terrific job.”
With Tuesday’s outing, deGrom extended his streak to 14 consecutive starts of pitching at least five innings and allowing two or fewer runs — the longest in Rangers franchise history (since 1961) and the longest in MLB this season.
His ERA now sits at 2.13, a reflection of his sustained dominance.
The only blemish was a two-out, two-run homer by Gary Sánchez in the fourth inning.
DeGrom has now logged six straight quality starts, matching his longest streak since August–September 2022 with the Mets.
