The Philadelphia Phillies left-hander threw 71% of his pitches for strikes, adding a sharper statistical picture to his performance against the Oakland Athletics.
Earlier reports said Sanchez worked eight innings and allowed one run as Philadelphia beat Oakland 9-1, with Bryce Harper supplying two home runs.
Harper's pair of homers lifted him to 372 career home runs, moving him past Freddie Freeman and Gil Hodges for 85th on MLB's all-time list.
Fueled by his own team's criticism, is Bryce Harper's two-homer game the start of a massive bounce-back season?
After a disastrous start and a new manager, is this dominant win the true beginning of the Phillies' championship run?
