A new challenger has emerged in the competition for the National League Cy Young Award.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Freddie Peralta has won 16 games of the season, continuing a four-game scoreless streak.

Peralta started the away game against the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Center on the 30th (Korea Standard Time) and led the team to a 7-2 complete victory by giving up only one hit and one walk in six innings and preventing them without losing a point.




Peralta, who has won four consecutive games since the match against the Atlanta Braves (four hits and one run in five innings) on the 6th, won 16 games (five losses) of the season, leading the two leagues alone in multiple wins. If he adds four wins in up to five appearances the rest of the season, he will reach the 20th victory mark. According to the current multi-win ranking, Peralta is the only pitcher who can win 20 games.

In particular, he continued his scoreless streak in 24 consecutive innings from the fifth inning against Atlanta on the 6th to lower his ERA to 2.59. According to the pitching results after the match against Atlanta, he has three hits and no runs in six innings against the Pittsburgh Pirates on the 13th, one hit in six innings against the Chicago Cubs on the 19th, and two hits in five innings against the San Francisco Giants on the 24th.

In August, he pitched 28 innings in five games, recording four wins, a 0.32 ERA and 34 strikeouts. He seems to be leading the NL pitcher competition in August.




As of this day, Peralta is the first in multiple wins, second in ERA, eighth in strikeouts (168), sixth in pitching innings (153 ⅔), fifth in WHIP (1.07), and second in hit rate (0.192).

On the same day, the Pittsburgh Pirates Paul Skins, the No. 1 candidate in the NL Cy Young Award, lowered his ERA to 2.05, ranking first in both leagues by winning nine games this season with seven hits and two runs (one earned run) in six innings against the Boston Red Sox.

Skins threw 167 innings in 28 games with 187 strikeouts, a WHIP of 0.95 and a 0.198 hit rate. Skins leads Peralta in ERA, pitching innings, strikeouts and WHIP, but no one knows what will happen for the rest of the month.




Peralta, who had 62 strikes out of 95 pitches, threw 38 fastballs at a maximum speed of 97.0 miles and an average of 93.4 miles, 1.4 miles slower than the season average. However, he effectively mixed changeups and curves, which are his main weapons, and tied the Toronto slugger to one hit. He struck out eight.

Peralta, who cooked with three outs in the first inning, gave up a left double to Alejandro Kirk after two outs in the bottom of the second, but he caught Nathan Roakes with a groundout to shortstop and gave it a scoreless run.

In the third inning, he walked George Springer and Addison Barger after two outs, putting him on the verge of the first and second bases, but he struck out Vladimir Guerrero Jr. with a 72.8-mile outside curve on the sixth pitch at the ball count 2B2S and finished the inning.

And Peralta, who put to rest in the fourth, fifth and sixth innings with three-out in a row, handed over the mound to Aaron Ashby in the bottom of the seventh inning with a 7-0 lead.

Milwaukee's lineup went 5-0 in the top of the sixth inning when the lead, Andrew Monasterio, hit a solo home run to the left to score the first run, followed by Andrew Vaughan's left-handed hit at first and second bases with two outs, Caleb Durbin's right-handed hit at first and second bases, and Isaac Collins' two-run right-handed double to add four more runs.

In the top of the seventh inning, Christine Yelich's groundout to the second base with one out and runners on the second and third bases added one point each with Bon's timely hit to widen the gap to 7-0.

Milwaukee, which played the first game of Toronto's three consecutive games, ran for the first place in both leagues with 84 wins and 52 losses. Toronto, the No. 1 AL player, recently lost to the strongest team in the Major League without continuing its winning series for the second consecutive time, recording 78 wins and 57 losses.
