Ivan Nova strikes out 11 in Pirates' win Tuesday
Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Ivan Nova allowed two runs (and only one earned run) over six innings on Tuesday, striking out 11 as the Pirates beat the Philadelphia Phillies 5-3.
What It Means:
Those 11 strikeouts crushed his previous season-high of eight, giving him his most since 2013.
Nova has bounced back from a couple of rough seasons, and his 4.03 ERA and 3.77 SIERA are both his best marks since 2013. His 19.0 percent strikeout rate and 4.5 percent walk rate through 149 2/3 innings are both better than his career averages.
