Anderson (4-3) allowed two runs on three hits and three walks while striking out three as he picked up the win Monday in a 4-2 victory over the Diamondbacks.
Anderson looked a bit rusty in the first inning after loading the bases on a single, a walk and a hit batsman, but he managed to work his way out of trouble, allowing Arizona to plate just one run. He has accrued a 3.86 ERA and 1.13 WHIP across 51.1 innings, but his underlying numbers are a bit concerning. Anderson rode a career-best 16.2 K-BB% to a career year in 2017, but his 6.7 K-BB% through nine starts would be easily a career worst and ranks eighth worst among big-league starters with 50-plus innings this season.
