  • Blue Jays' Bowden Francis: Loses no-hitter in the ninth

    Rotowire

    Francis allowed one run on one hit and one walk over eight innings Wednesday in a no-decision against the Mets. He struck out one.

    Francis lost a no-hitter in the ninth inning for the second time in his last four starts. The right-hander issued just one walk through eight innings before Francisco Lindor smacked a game-tying homer to lead off the ninth. Despite another tough finish, Francis has been spectacular of late. Overall, the 28-year-old Francis is 8-4 on the season with a 3.50 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 82:20 K:BB over 92.2 innings. He's currently lined up for a road matchup with the Rangers next week in his next start.

  • Blue Jays' Bowden Francis: Another quality start in loss

    Rotowire

    Francis (8-4) took the loss Wednesday against the Phillies, allowing three runs on six hits over six innings. He struck out six.

    While Francis ultimately took his first loss since Aug. 4, the right-hander turned in another strong effort against the Phillies. Francis allowed a solo home run to Kyle Schwarber in the first inning and a two-run shot to Kody Clemens in the second before holding Philadelphia scoreless over his final four frames. The 28-year-old Francis had allowed just four runs over his previous five starts (34 innings) while posting a stellar 0.38 WHIP in that span. Overall, his ERA sits at 3.72 on the year with a 0.99 WHIP and 81:19 K:BB across 84.2 innings this year. Francis is currently slated to face the Mets at home in his next outing.

  • Blue Jays' Bowden Francis: Dominant in eighth win

    Rotowire

    Francis (8-3) picked up the win over the Red Sox on Thursday, allowing one hit and zero walks over seven shutout innings while striking out five.

    Francis had a no-hitter going into the sixth inning when he gave up a single to Nick Sogard with one out in the frame. The right-hander would then retire the final five batters he faced in the contest before being relieved by Genesis Cabrera to open the eighth. Francis took a no-hitter into the ninth in his previous start, and he's now hurled at least seven innings of one-run ball in each of his last four outings, recording the win in all of them with a robust 32:3 K:BB.

    Rotowire

Francis threw a career-high 117 pitches, including a ridiculous 84 strikes, and registered double-digit punchouts for the first time ever. The 28-year-old has now completed at least seven innings in three consecutive outings while yielding just five total hits and two earned runs in that span. On the year, he owns a 4.02 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 70:19 K:BB across 71.2 innings and will try to keep the good times rolling against the Red Sox next week.
