Orioles pitcher Kevin Gausman fell short of a quality start Friday, in a 4-1 loss to the Cubs.
Gausman opened the outing with three scoreless innings, but the Cubs jumped on him for two runs in the fourth and one more in the fifth. He was charged with three runs on six hits over five innings of work, while striking out seven batters on 101 pitches in the loss.
Gausman fell to 7-5 in 14 starts with the loss, while his ERA rose slightly, to 3.81 in 78 innings of work. His next outing is set for Wednesday against the Rays.
