Sanchez came away with a no-decision in Wednesday's win over the Cubs, allowing four runs (three earned) on five hits and one walk while striking out four in 4.2 innings.
Sanchez was cruising until Nico Hoerner hit a three-run blast in the fourth inning. Sanchez was pulled with two outs in the fifth after surrendering an RBI single, leaving him one out shy of earning his 12th win. The 27-year-old finishes his regular season with a 3.32 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 153:44 K:BB in 181.2 innings (31 starts), setting career highs in wins, ERA and strikeouts. Although he did not have his best stuff Wednesday, Sanchez could still be in the mix for starts in the playoffs -- the southpaw posted a 1.80 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 25:7 K:BB in four September starts (25 innings) prior to Wednesday.
