Bassitt allowed four runs on four hits and two walks over six innings in a no-decision Friday. He struck out six in the win against the Angels.
Bassitt was tagged early in this one by the Angels, giving up all four of his runs in the second but then pitching great to get through six frames. Bassitt retired the last 10 hitters he faced, and he's now struck out five or more hitters in seven of his last eight starts. The 35-year-old ended June with a 3.24 ERA but has seen it climb to 4.41 over his last nine starts. His 6.80 ERA over those last nine starts makes him tough to trust down the stretch.
