Marlins pitcher Henderson Alvarez earned a win Tuesday, giving up five hits and one walk in 7 2/3 scoreless innings while striking out two in his team's 2-0 victory over the Phillies.
Alvarez (12-6) has turned in three straight quality starts and continues to excel despite a pedestrian strikeout rate. He owns a 2.70 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 108:33 K:BB ratio in 180 innings. He's slated to face the Nationals in the season finale Sunday.
