Wacha (5-7) pitched six innings Friday, allowing two runs, 10 hits and one walk while striking out four Dodgers. He did not factor in the decision.
The 10 hits allowed were Wacha's most since first start of the year back on April 5 against the Pirates. Now in his fourth MLB season, the 25-year-old owns a career-worst 4.37 ERA and 1.44 WHIP. In his defense, Wacha has been a bit unlucky in that his BABIP is significantly higher than any of his other seasons, and it puts the righty in the top ten for worst BABIP among qualified starting pitchers.
