Soroka (12-4) threw six scoreless innings while allowing one hit with three walks and four strikeouts to earn a victory over the Nationals on Friday.
This was the right-hander's best outing in more than a month since he threw seven shutout frames against the Marlins on Aug. 10. The three walks was more than normal for Soroka, but he still only permitted four baserunners. He sports a 2.57 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 130 strikeouts in 164.2 innings this season. Soroka will start again Thursday at home against the Phillies.
