Kelly (2-0) pitched 2.1 innings, allowing seven runs, seven hits and three walks while striking out one in Wednesday's game against the Orioles. He did not factor in the decision.
Since the right-hander returned from the DL (shoulder) on May 21, he's been inconsistent. In his first start back on May 21 against the Indians, Kelly flirted with a no-hitter. However, in his ensuing start on May 27 against the Blue Jays, Kelly lasted just 4.2 innings and gave up five runs on nine hits (including two home runs). Wednesday, he once again was knocked around pretty good, but luckily escaped without suffering his first loss of the season. The 27-year-old will take an 8.46 ERA and a 2.24 WHIP into his next start on Tuesday against the Orioles.
