Jacob deGrom breaks 108-year-old MLB record in Mets win
deGrom now has the most consecutive starts allowing no more than four earned runs since earned runs became a stat in 1913.
Jim Scott previously held the record for more than 100 years as he accomplished the feat from June 1, 1913, to June 4, 1914.
The last time deGrom allowed at least four earned runs in a game was back on Sept. 3, 2019.
In his last 103 starts (dating back to 2017), he has a 1.98 ERA and 888 strikeouts. He and Clayton Kershaw are the only pitchers in baseball history with a span of such numbers.
He has not had a season ERA over 2.50 since 2017.
The Mets earned their 93rd win of the season on Sunday behind deGrom's 13 strikeouts and two-RBI days from Jeff McNeil and Daniel Vogelbach. It's their most wins since their NL East-winning 97 wins in 2006.
