Rays pitcher Alex Cobb turned in a strong performance Wednesday against the Royals.
Cobb allowed two runs on six hits over 6 2/3 innings. He walked two and struck out seven during the start. Cobb actually ran into some issues early, as he allowed a first inning home run to Eric Hosmer. He settled in for a bit after that before allowing a run on a groundout in the fourth. Cobb then settled in, shutting down the Royals the rest of the way.
The Rays bullpen wound up blowing the lead, giving Cobb a no-decision. It’s unclear when he’ll make his next start due to the All-Star Game.
