EXL: Jake Rabinowitz reached 800 strikeouts milestone
Třebíč pitcher Jake Rabinowitz started Saturday game against Draci Brno. While he was unable to get his team’s win, he could find some satisfaction in reaching a historical milestone.
Rabinowitz entered the game with 795 strikeouts in his Extraliga career (as pointed out by server baseball-stat.cz) and it was to be expected he could become the 5th player in the history to reach 800 strikeouts. He did so in the 5th inning. First, he sent Martin Červinka back to the dugout with his 4th strikeout of the game, and afterwards he dealt with Milan Prokop in the same way.
Rabinowitz is in 3rd place in number of strikeouts among active players and there is no one to threaten his position in near future. He himself is also 97 strikeouts behind Eagles Tomáš Duffek.
