Alex Faedo Sharp In Five Scoreless Frames Tuesday
1 year agoDetroit Tigers pitcher Alex Faedo was on his game Tuesday night in Minnesota where he tossed five scoreless innings while allowing just one hit, one walk, and one hit-by-pitch against six strikeouts on the night. However, despite the excellent effort, Faedo was left with a no-decision as a five-run sixth inning propelled the Twins to a 5-3 victory in Tuesday's series opener. The results largely haven't been there for the former first-round pick this season but Faedo continues to see some positive regression kick in. He has now allowed just three earned runs over his last three starts spanning 15 2/3 innings while Tuesday marked his second scoreless outing in that time. The right-hander's 4.19 SIERA and 6.1% BB% suggest he's been much better than his 5.16 ERA might suggest.
