Woodruff allowed one run on just two hits and one walk over seven innings in a no-decision against the Nationals on Saturday. He struck out eight.
It was an excellent performance from the young right-hander, as he got ahead in counts throughout the night (16 of 24 first-pitch strikes) and induced 13 swinging strikes. Both hits against Woodruff were singles, and both came in the fourth inning. He now has a 1.52 ERA and 20:9 K:BB in four starts for the Brewers, and he's done that while working mostly with his fastball and slider. Woodruff lines up to face the Cubs in his next scheduled start.
