Diaz (0-2) allowed four runs on three hits and a walk while recording just one out -- a strikeout -- en route to taking the loss Tuesday against the Rangers.
It was a non-save situation, as Diaz entered in a tied 5-5 game in the ninth inning. He needed 25 pitches just to get the one out and was tagged for a couple singles and a double before coming out. The 24-year-old hadn't allowed a run in seven straight outings -- he last gave up a run in a blown save against the Rangers. His ERA jumped up from 1.59 to 2.83 as a result of Tuesday's outing.
