Spencer Strider Hones in on Control Issues After Rough Season Debut

Published May 4, 2026 · Updated May 4, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

Atlanta Braves pitcher Spencer Strider returned from the injured list on Sunday, but his performance was marred by a career-high five walks in just 3 1/3 innings.

The right-hander allowed three earned runs in the loss against the Rockies and admitted he isn't satisfied with the effort.

"I'd rather be pitching than hurt, for sure, but I don't want a participation trophy," Strider said. He is scheduled to face the Dodgers next weekend. milkshakeslot.lat
