Kirby Cruises Through 7 Innings on Just 79 Pitches
Seattle's George Kirby is dealing efficiently, posting 8 strikeouts and allowing just one run while remaining well within his pitch count.
George Kirby reached the seventh inning having thrown only 79 pitches, a notably low total that suggests he could return for additional innings. He allowed one run on five hits, issued one walk, and struck out eight batters. The pitch efficiency is a meaningful in-game signal for Seattle's bullpen usage and Kirby's overall workload. Beat reporter Ryan Divish reported the update live during the game.
