Pfaadt (9-7) allowed three runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out 10 over 5.2 innings to earn the win Sunday over the Dodgers.
While it wasn't the sharpest outing, Pfaadt did his part after the Diamondbacks put up nine runs over the first three innings. He had allowed 26 runs (24 earned) across 34.1 innings over his last six starts, so this counts as improvement. The right-hander is now at a 4.32 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 155:34 K:BB through 160.1 innings over 27 starts this season. His career high for innings across all levels in a single year is 167, set back in 2022 -- he'll likely set a new high, but fatigue shouldn't be a concern during the regular season. Pfaadt is projected to make his next start at Houston.
