Burke didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Mets, allowing four runs on seven hits while striking out four without a walk over six innings.
Burke struggled early, allowing three runs over the first four innings before Bo Bichette extended New York's advantage with a solo homer in the fifth. The right-hander nevertheless completed six frames without issuing a free pass, and Chicago's three-homer outburst in the bottom of the sixth ultimately got him off the hook for the loss. Burke has pitched particularly well over the last two months despite remaining winless since July 19, posting a 2.90 ERA in 40.1 innings across seven starts since the All-Star break. He's lined up to make his next start at home against the Rangers.
