Cristopher Sánchez of the Phillies has thrown 44 ⅔ consecutive scoreless innings, marking the 11th-longest streak in MLB history. In May, he made five starts, pitched 39 innings, recorded 45 strikeouts, and allowed just 25 hits, maintaining a 0.00 ERA and 0.72 WHIP. His next appearance is scheduled for Wednesday against the Padres, where he could move closer to the record held by Orel Hershiser. Despite his remarkable performance, Sánchez has not received the level of attention that similar milestones have historically garnered.

- •He leads MLB in ERA at 1.47 and innings pitched.
- •Sánchez had a 15.0 strikeout-to-walk ratio in May.
