Marlins pitcher Henderson Alvarez recorded just five outs in Wednesday's 4-3 loss the Nationals before a rain delay ended his night early. He gave up one earned run on three hits while striking out three and walking none in 1 2/3 innings.

Alvarez wasn't able to pick up a win in August, recording a quality start in just one of five tries. He takes a 2-3 record, 3.90 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 37:17 K:BB ratio into Monday's scheduled start against the Cubs.
