Pivetta (6-11) picked up the win against the Twins in the first game of Sunday's doubleheader, allowing one run (zero earned) on four hits and three walks while striking out four in five innings.
Outside of a third-inning error that allowed one run to cross, Pivetta shut down the Twins to pick up his first win since July 29. Pivetta allowed at least one baserunner in all five innings he pitched, but he was able to minimize the damage despite a subpar 4:3 K:BB. The 31-year-old Pivetta has posted a respectable 4.21 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 166:35 K:BB in 139 innings this season. He is scheduled to wrap up his 2024 campaign next weekend against Tampa Bay.
