He's done it, 21 in a row! Gibson 26 DeGrom 26 Arrieta 24 Carpenter 22 That's the very short list he's gunning for. Rarified air indeed.
3 batters would have to get on base, he'll be over 100 pitches by the time the second base runner hypothetically gets on and he would get pulled, thus assuring his QS. Worse case the first 2 runners in the 7th get on, he'd get pulled at that point. The record is his. Congrats Framber!!!
