Sonny Gray Strikes Out 11, Allows only 1 Hit in Dominant Complete Game as St. Louis Cardinals Blank Cleveland Guardians 5-0

  • Sonny Gray threw a complete game shutout, allowing just one hit and recording 11 strikeouts, leading the St. Louis Cardinals to a 5-0 victory over the Cleveland Guardians on June 27, 2025.
  • The Cardinals snapped a 24-inning scoreless streak partly due to home runs by Pedro Pages and Alec Burleson, while José Ramírez missed the game with a bruised forearm.
  • Gray retired the first 14 batters faced and kept his pitch count low with 89 pitches, including 66 strikes, marking his fourth career shutout and seventh complete game.
  • In the third inning, Pages and Burleson each hit homers off Cleveland pitcher Luis Ortiz, whose record fell to 4-9; Burleson's two-run blast with two outs helped increase the early lead.
  • This dominant outing ended the Cardinals' previous two-game scoreless skid and highlights Gray's strong resurgence after allowing six runs in a June 12 loss.
