Martinez allowed two runs with a strikeout and a walk across seven innings Friday versus the Brewers to earn his 14th win of the season.
Martinez surprisingly failed to draw many whiffs Friday after piling up 31 strikeouts over his last four starts, but he still induced 12 swinging strikes and induced an even more impressive 15 ground-ball outs. Martinez has thrown six consecutive quality starts, going 4-0 during that span, and he has lowered his season ERA to a solid 3.05. He will have the opportunity to keep it rolling Wednesday versus the Cubs.
