Nola (10-10) gave up six runs on 10 hits and one walk while striking out seven over five innings in a losing effort against the Marlins on Saturday.
The evening started poorly for Nola, as he gave up homers to Giancarlo Stanton and Marcell Ozuna in the first, and the extra-base hits just kept coming. His curveball wasn't sharp and the Marlins sat on his fastball. Nola was excellent in June and July, but the long season may be catching up to the 24-year-old (19 earned runs in his last four starts). Assuming he stays on schedule, Nola will face the Nationals on the road his next time out.
