Pruitt (2-0) pitched 2.1 perfect innings in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Astros, notching a pair of strikeouts.
Pruitt was dominant over his time on the mound, firing 16 of his 20 pitches for strikes and notching first-pitch strikes to all but one of the seven batters he faced. The 27-year-old righty has validated the trust manager Kevin Cash showed in him despite a rocky first five outings, allowing just one earned run over 6.2 innings in his last three appearances.
