Ferguson (2-1) got the win and a hold against the Reds on Wednesday, firing a clean eighth inning during which he recorded a strikeout.
Ferguson was dialed in during his setup duties, getting through his one frame on 12 pitches (10 strikes). The 30-year-old rookie had allowed an earned run for the first time since Aug. 2 in Tuesday's appearance, but his ability to bounce back Wednesday lowered his ERA and WHIP to 3.58 and 1.09, respectively, across his first 37.2 big-league innings.
