Mengden (0-3) took another hard loss in Wednesday's game against the Brewers. He pitched six quality innings, allowing three runs on seven hits while walking one and striking out nine.
Granted he's only made three MLB starts, but for the second straight start, Mengden set a new career high for strikeouts. He's been doomed by home runs in each of his starts, but he's displayed great command of his pitches by walking just two hitters in his last two outings after issuing four in his debut. Mengden will look for his first big league win in his next start on Monday in San Francisco.
