ST. LOUIS (AP)—Kyle McClellan began the year at the end of the St. Louis Cardinals’ rotation. Now, the former setup man has jumped ahead of everyone in the National League.
The first-year starter became the NL’s first six-game winner after working eight strong innings in a 4-2 victory over the Houston Astros on Thursday. McClellan pounded the strike zone and did not go to a three-ball count on any of the 29 batters he faced.
