Imanaga (11-3) allowed three runs on four hits and a walk over six innings Friday, striking out eight and earning a win over Washington.
Imanaga gave up three runs through three innings, including a solo shot off the bat of Dylan Crews, but settled in to deliver a quality start. It was Imanaga's second straight quality start and third in six August appearances. He gave up only three long balls through his first nine starts but has been taken deep 20 times over his last 16 outings. Imanaga now owns a 3.14 ERA with a 148:23 K:BB through 146.1 frames. He's projected for a home start against the Pirates next week.
