Gavin Williams News: Jumped early in no-decision

Williams did not factor into the decision in Wednesday's 13-4 loss to the Marlins, allowing four runs on five hits and one walk with four strikeouts over three innings.

Williams allowed four runs on two homers in the first inning and exited after 75 pitches, with just three frames marking his shortest outing since April 28. The rough start snaps a streak of four consecutive quality starts for the 26-year-old, and the early hook was understandable after he threw a career-high 126 pitches in a no-hit bid last week. He owns a 3.38 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 127:67 K:BB across 128 innings and will look to rebound in a road matchup with the Diamondbacks early next week.
