During Friday’s start against the Pittsburgh Pirates, Burns etched his name into MLB history. The Reds announced that Burns had become the first player to ever strike out ten hitters in four of their first eight career starts. "Chase Burns becomes the first Major Leaguer with 10+ strikeouts in 4 of their first 8 career games!"

Chase Burns has reached some elite company in his first six starts in the majors. However, the Reds rookie right-hander is still seeking his first big-league win.
