On this day, Peddie threw 108 balls, and 52 (48%), nearly half, were filled with his main weapon, the sweeper.

He dominated the Tampa Bay batting lineup with a variety of pitches, including sinkers (25), cut fastballs (24), and splitters (7).

The White Sox swept their three-game series against Tampa Bay.

MLB.com commented, “With Peddie’s outstanding pitching, the White Sox completed a three-game sweep.”

In the top of the first inning, with one out and runners on first and second base, Peddie struck out Isaac Paredes on a fly ball to first base and Harold Ramirez on a missed swing, ending the inning without allowing a run.

The ball that struck out Ramirez was a sweeper.

Paredes was hit with a solo shot in the top of the 4th inning, but the White Sox scored 2 points in the bottom of the 4th and succeeded in turning the game around.

Peddie, who had thrown 100 balls until the 8th inning, went on the mound in the top of the 9th inning, aiming for his 'first complete game'.

In the 9th inning, the first batter, Ahmed Rosario, was treated with a fly ball to center field, leaving a complete game with 2 out counts.

However, Eric Peddie gave up one run after a hit to right by Paredes and a double by Ramirez that rolled to the right-center fence.

In the end, the White Sox replaced the pitcher.

Although he missed the complete game, Peddie pitched the most innings in a single MLB game.

Previously, the most innings in a single game by an individual was 7 innings.

Even when Peddy was named the regular season MVP (MVP) in the Korean Professional Baseball League in 2023, he could not achieve a complete game.

Eric Peddy, who succeeded in returning to the big leagues using the KBO League as a springboard, has pitched in 6 games so far and is pitching well with 2 wins and an ERA of 2.60.
