Peavy Falls One 'K' Shy Of Joining Seaver In Record Book
Sep 28, 2014 1:16 AM
Even as he mowed down the Diamondbacks, Jake Peavy had no idea he needed one strike to tie Tom Seaver's MLB record of 10 consecutive strikeouts.
"I knew I struck out quite a few in a row," said Peavy, who tied a career-high with 16 strikeouts. "I'm just trying to get outs. Records are the last thing from your mind."
Peavy's gem was wasted when Stephen Drew hit a two-out, two-run homer off Trevor Hoffman in the ninth to give the Diamondbacks a 3-2 victory over the Padres Wednesday night.
