Two rookies are among the five most recent complete game performances in MLB during 2015. Here are the new additions to the CG list:
--Mark Buehrle (6/3), with the first back-to-back CG wins of the year (and his third CG of 2015), tossed a six-hit shutout against the Nationals in an 8-0 Toronto win;
--Corey Kluber (6/3), in a losing effort vs. the Royals, allowing nine hits and four runs as KC beat Cleveland, 4-2;
--Aforementioned rookie Lance McCullers (6/3), registering a CG in his third big league start, allowing only four hits and fanning eleven as the Astros beat the Orioles, 3-1;
--Rookie #2, Chi Chi Gonzalez (6/5), tossing a three-hit shutout against the Royals in a 4-0 Texas win. Chi Chi tied Josh Collmenter and Buehrle for fewest strikeouts in a 2015 CG, with two.
--David Price (6/6), halting Detroit's losing slide with his second complete game of the year, fanning eleven in a 7-1 win over the White Sox.
We are now a third of the way through the season and one-quarter of the way to 100 CGs.
