Doval (5-3) allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and struck out one over one inning, taking the extra-inning loss versus the Padres on Sunday.
Doval worked the 10th inning but couldn't keep the Padres in check. He had appeared to stabilize his performance after returning from a stint at Triple-A Sacramento in August, but he's faded again in September, allowing nine runs (eight earned) over 6.2 innings this month. Doval is now at a 5.17 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 71:36 K:BB with 22 saves and three holds over 54 innings, but he could be out of the high-leverage picture by the end of the campaign given his current trend.
