McHugh didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Red Sox, surrendering 10 hits, four earned runs and three walks over six innings. He struck out two.
The 28-year-old pitched to plenty of contact, inducing only four swinging strikes and giving up 10 hits for the third start this season. He also surrendered a homer for the fourth straight appearance, despite eliciting double-digit ground balls. McHugh also struggled with his control over his six frames on the mound, issuing a season-high three walks, and now has a 1.71 WHIP on the season to go along with a 5.58 ERA.
