Tyler allowed three runs on five hits and two walks while striking out three batters over 4.1 innings in a no-decision against Cincinnati on Thursday.
Tyler struggled from the outset, giving up two runs in the first inning. He was better after that, yielding just one additional run, though he exited after 84 pitches with one out in the fourth having allowed two of the first three batters in that frame to reach base. It was the fourth straight outing in which Tyler has failed to complete five frames -- in fact, he's reached the five-inning mark just once over his first seven starts. The right-hander has posted a poor 5.40 ERA, 1.74 WHIP and 25:18 K:BB across 31.2 innings in the majors this season.
