Yariel Rodríguez gives up three runs in loss
Yariel Rodríguez allowed three runs with two strikeouts over four innings in a loss against the Royals on Wednesday.
Advice: Rodriguez struggled to find the zone in the first inning, walking two batters before Salvador Perez knocked in a run with a base hit. Two more hits in the second brought another run in to score for the Royals. He retired the next seven batters until the fifth, when three straight singles brought a run in and left two runners on base as Rodríguez’s day was done. The 27-year-old right-hander’s velocity was down a bit from his first two starts, and he generated only four swings-and-misses. He’ll take a 3.86 ERA, 1.54 WHIP, and a 15/5 K/BB ratio across 11 2/3 innings into a start against these same Royals in Toronto on Monday.
