Petit (8-2) was tagged with the loss in relief Tuesday against Kansas City after allowing four runs on four hits across one-third of an inning, striking out one.

Petit entered the game in the sixth inning but was unable to tame the Royals lineup, and he departed the contest after allowing three straight singles and a three-run home run to Salvador Perez. The veteran reliever has enjoyed a decent season, but he seems to be moving in the wrong direction of late and has given up runs in four of his last five appearances. He owns a 3.79 ERA on the year, but he has a 15.43 figure over his first five September appearances.
