Jacob deGrom just etched his name in baseball history with his 2,000th strikeout — a rare milestone shared by fewer than 100 pitchers ever — fanning Abimelec Ortiz in the first inning against the Nationals. Rising from a quiet draft pick to a two-time Cy Young winner with the Mets, deGrom battled injuries and even Tommy John surgery, yet returned stronger with a 2025 season that included 170 innings, 185 strikeouts, and an All-Star nod. Now with the Rangers, he’s 93rd on the all-time strikeout list and still has at least one more year to climb even higher.
