Rockies starting pitcher Jordan Lyles came undone Saturday, in an 8-5 loss to the Padres.
Lyles, who had walked more than two batters just one in his first eight starts, issued six free passes in just three-plus innings of work. He was charged with six runs on five hits, while striking out three batters on 92 pitches in 3 1/3 innings of work.
Lyles took his first loss of the season, dropping his record to 5-1. He now has 10 walks over his last two starts, equaling his total from the first seven. Lyles has a 3.50 ERA heading into his next start, Friday in Atlanta.
