L.A.'s Harang Strikes Out Nine Straight Batters
Oct 31, 2014 10:32 AM
Dodgers right-hander Aaron Harang set a franchise record Friday night by striking out nine consecutive batters against the Padres.
Harang fell one strikeout short of the all-time Major League record of 10 set by Hall of Famer Tom Seaver of the Mets on April 22, 1970.
The run of strikeouts began after Harang gave up a lead-off single to San Diego center fielder Cameron Maybin. It ended when Will Venable led off the top of the fourth with a home run.
The Dodgers won the game by a score of 9-8.
