The record was set by Brandon Webb in 2007.Zac Gallen's MLB journeyThe New Jersey native started his professional career playing for the St. Louis affiliate Gulf Coast Cardinals in 2017. On December 18 of that year, he was traded to the Miami Marlins with Sandy Alcantara, Magneuris Sierra, and Daniel Castano for Marcell Ozuna.Gallen made his major league debut on June 20, 2019, in a game against (you guessed it) the St. Louis Cardinals. He fanned six batters and gave up one run in five innings of work.The next stop of his career was with the Arizona Diamondbacks. Gallen was traded to Arizona in a deal that saw Jazz Chisholm Jr. go to the Marlins. In the second half of the 2019 season, he posted a 2-3 record with a 2.89 ERA with the D'backs.Sebastian Alvarez@castlehill814@JeffPassan Miami lost their mind giving him up.
