13 strikeouts tonight against the Orioles.

Second 300 strikeout season since 2002 when Randy Johnson had 334 and Curt Schilling had 316.

First AL pitcher to 300 K's in a season since Pedro had 313 in 1999.

191 of the 300 strikeouts have been on the road. Most by any pitcher since 1913.

Kershaw in 2015 was the first since 2002 with 301 K's.

There is A reason for this... Back about 30 years ago... Starting pitchers went 7-8 innings on the reg... That makes this even more impressive...

He throws 98 with a deadly breaking ball and a change.

He's a win when he's on.

He's one of the best 20 pitchers who have ever lived.
