Harrison (10-5) took the loss Thursday against the Pirates, allowing five runs (four earned) on four hits and two walks over 1.2 innings. He struck out two.
Harrison's struggles continued in his return to the Brewers' rotation. After turning in a scoreless first inning, the southpaw imploded in the second as Pittsburgh put up a five spot. Harrison has now given up a staggering 21 earned runs across just nine frames in his last four appearances. His ERA is up to 4.25 through 112.1 innings this season with a 1.34 WHIP and 136:35 K:BB. Given his difficulties Thursday, Harrison figures to return to Milwaukee's bullpen down the stretch and may not be guaranteed a place on the postseason roster.
