Brandon Woodruff Issues Four Walks In No-Decision
3 years agoMilwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Brandon Woodruff went 5 2/3 innings, allowing two runs (one earned) on two hits and four walks in a no-decision against the Reds. He struck out eight. Woodruff struggled with walks, issuing a season-high four free passes, but still limited the Reds to a pair of runs in the second inning, only one of which was earned. Woodruff is winless (0-1) in his first three July starts but still owns a sterling 2.04 ERA and 0.83 WHIP in 119 innings overall this season, posting a 137:29 K: BB ratio. He's tentatively scheduled for a home start next week against the White Sox. Woodruff has not been given run support from the Brewers lately, in fact, he has the least amount of run support in the NL this year. His peripherals continue to be elite, but the wins have been tough to come by.
