July 4 (UPI) -- Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg threw his first career 'immaculate inning' as part of a 14-strikeout performance against the Miami Marlins.
Strasburg struck out Garrett Cooper, Neil Walker and Starlin Castro on nine pitches in the fourth inning Wednesday night at Nationals Park. His immaculate inning was the fourth in franchise history and the fifth by a Major League pitcher this season.
