Burnes allowed three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out five batters over 7.1 innings in a no-decision against Miami on Thursday.
ANALYSISBurnes held the Marlins scoreless for five frames before serving up a solo homer to
Josh Bell in the sixth. The veteran hurler rebounded with a scoreless seventh, but he allowed a pair of singles and got only one out in the eighth, and both baserunners came around to score. Burnes was still in line for the victory until Miami rallied to tie the game with three runs in the bottom of the ninth inning, and he ended up with just his second no-decision across his past 10 starts. The right-hander nonetheless recorded his fifth straight quality start and his 17th overall on the campaign, which is tied for first in the majors.
