Burns (7-1) got the win against the Mets on Tuesday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out eight across 5.1 innings.
Burns entered Tuesday's start having logged at least seven strikeouts in five of his six prior outings. He set the tone early by striking out the side in the first inning and kept the Mets off the board until the sixth, when he gave up a two-run homer to Juan Soto. Burns fell two outs short of recording a sixth straight quality start (and eighth of the season), but it was another strong outing for the 23-year-old right-hander. He has a 1.96 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 72 strikeouts across 64.1 innings in what has been a breakout season so far. Burns is slated to make his next start at home against the Royals.
