Luzardo (5-4) earned the win Wednesday against the Blue Jays, allowing one run on four hits and four walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out eight.
Although Luzardo tied a season high in walks issued, he was still able to hang in there for a strong outing overall. The 28-year-old southpaw turned in his most punchouts since his May 3 start in Miami, and he gave up fewer than three runs for the fifth time in his last six appearances. Luzardo still has an underwhelming 4.35 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 88:25 K:BB over 78.2 innings, but he's set for a favorable home matchup against Miami his next time out.
