Astros pitcher Dallas Keuchel didn't factor into the decision Saturday after giving up three earned runs on six hits and two walks in 6 1/3 innings while striking out six in his team's 7-6 win over the A's.
Keuchel surrendered two runs in the first inning but pitched well after escaping trouble. His third run came on a sacrifice fly after he left the game, allowing an inherited runner to score, but the Astros bullpen was able to limit the damage. Keuchel owns a 3.56 ERA and 30:8 K:BB ratio in 30 1/3 innings. He's lined up to face the Mariners next weekend, either on Friday or Saturday.
