Nick Pivetta News: Stellar in eighth win
Pivetta (8-2) struck out 10 and earned the win Wednesday over the Nationals, allowing just three hits and no walks over seven scoreless innings.
It was quite a bounce-back performance from Pivetta after he was tagged for four runs in just 4.2 innings against Kansas City in his last outing. The right-hander matched a season high with 10 strikeouts while delivering at least seven scoreless innings for the fourth time this year. Pivetta lowered his ERA to 3.36 on the season with a 1.03 WHIP and 101:24 K:BB across 16 starts (91 innings). He's currently lined up for a tough road matchup with the Phillies in his next outing.
