Javier (2-6) allowed two runs on five hits and three walks while striking out two over 5.1 innings to take the loss versus the Royals on Wednesday.
Javier allowed a lot of traffic on the base paths, but all the damage came off of a John Rave home run in the fourth. This start continues a strong September for Javier where he has a 2.20 ERA and 0.98 WHIP through 16.1 innings and three starts. The righty is scheduled to pitch next week in Seattle.
