Freeland (4-2) allowed three runs on five hits and four walks over six innings in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Twins. He struck out three.
The lefty was in and out of trouble all night but avoided any significant damage in delivering his fifth straight quality start and sixth of the season. Freeland's 3.13 ERA may be a mirage given his lackluster 29:22 K:BB through 46 innings, not to mention his home park, but with the Rockies riding high right now, the rookie should be able to keep picking up wins as long as he doesn't completely fall apart. Freeland's next start comes Sunday in Cincinnati.
