David Price, with his 11-strikeout performance in the Rays’ 5-1 victory over the Pirates, has whiffed at least ten batters in five straight games, marking the 22nd time a pitcher has accomplished the feat in major league history.

Richard (1), Dwight Gooden (1), and Johan Santana, who, in 2004, was the last to accomplished the deed.
