Ryan Feltner allowed six hits and three runs – two earned – with nine strikeouts and zero walks across six innings to earn the win against the Giants on Friday.
The Rockies had amassed a seven-run lead by the third inning and Feltner cruised with that cushion. The trio of his fastball, slider, and changeup were especially lethal as each forced at least five swings-and-misses. That’s amazing, but this is a rarity for Feltner who rarely misses bats or even strikes hitters out. His 17 total whiffs were the third most in any start of his career and the most since April 2024. To further show how rarely Feltner stacks up strikeouts like this, his nine in this game are one quarter of his season total. Don’t get roped into this.
