Tyler Mahle showcased his prowess on the mound in a 4-0 victory against the Los Angeles Angels, pitching six scoreless innings and striking out nine. His impressive performance has earned him a league-leading 0.92 ERA through four starts. Mahle's ability to excel with runners on base is noteworthy, as he has limited opponents to a .125 batting average with runners on, a testament to his skill in high-pressure situations.

Despite not having overwhelming velocity, Mahle's repertoire includes effective secondary pitches that complement his low 90s fastball, which proved particularly adept at generating swings and misses. With 18 swings and misses against the Angels, Mahle's fastball continues to be a vital weapon for the Texas Rangers' rotation, which ranks among the best in MLB.
