Davies (5-4) took it on the chin at home Thursday against the Dodgers. He was hooked after allowing six runs, eight hits and two walks while striking out three in just 4.1 innings.
Thursday's outing snapped a long streak of effective starts for Davies. From May 4 through Wednesday -- covering Davies' last 10 starts -- he was 5-0 with a 2.46 ERA, tied for 10th best in the NL over that period. The sophomore right-hander entered the game with a respectable 3.74 ERA, but left it with a blemished 4.22 mark. Davies three strikeouts were his least amount since May 10 when he whiffed just one batter. He'll look to start a new streak in his next start Tuesday in Washington.
