“Hi, I’m Jacob deGrom, and I have the chance with my stuff to just dominate baseball for years to come.”

Never has Joe Buck made a call so prophetic.

The 27-year-old reigning Rookie of the Year wasn’t around long for his welcoming onto the All-Star stage. That was of his own doing.

If you blinked, you missed it. If you saw it, as a national audience did, it was hard to argue that he was the Mets’ new superstar pitcher.

DeGrom didn’t just strike out each of the three American League All-Stars he faced in the sixth inning at Cincinnati’s Great American Ballpark. He was nearly immaculate.

“I had some nerves,” deGrom said. “First All-Star Game, I wanted to go out there and do a good job.”

It was quick to figure out the only nervous ones were those hitting against him. Eight precisely-placed fastballs clocked in between 96 and 98 miles per hour. He tossed in two sliders for good measure. The helpless AL trio swung five times and missed five times. Just once did deGrom throw one out of the strike zone, and that came on an 0-2 offering.

Oakland A’s catcher Stephen Vogt was no match for three heaters. Neither was Cleveland second baseman Jason Kipnis, but at least he stayed long enough to take a ball. Realizing he had drifted the slightest bit away from perfect, deGrom normalized and used the minimum throws to fan Jose Iglesias of the Detroit Tigers on an off-speed delivery around 80 mph.

Ten pitches. Nine strikes. Three outs. “DeGromination” in its purest form.

“Because I knew I had just one inning, I was just letting it go,” he said.

The performance was at least somewhat reminiscent of dominant pitching efforts of All-Star past, like 19-year-old Dwight Gooden fanning the side in 1984 at Candlestick Park or even Carl Hubbell striking out five Hall of Famers in succession.

Many All-Star pitchers have K’d three batters in an inning. But few, if any, have done it which such efficiency. DeGrom’s outing in Cincinnati stands as the only three-strikeout, 10-pitch-or-fewer inning in recorded Midsummer Classic history (complete pitch-count tracking began in 1988).

Vogt was asked in the clubhouse postgame about getting the chance to hit in his first All-Star Game and he quickly made a correction. “I got a chance to strike out,” Vogt said. “He was some kind of good.”
